Critic Reviews for Palm Trees and Power Lines
All Critics (27) | Top Critics (8) | Fresh (25) | Rotten (2)
Palm Trees and Power Lines goes somewhere even darker than Andrea Arnold's Fish Tank, with a brave query into the notion of consent and a gut-wrenching parting note that feels like a scream stuck in one's throat.
It's a compelling, edgy story of exploitation with no easy answers.
Fleeting glances, nearly undetectable changes in body language, a haunting shift in tone and deliberate silences come together to form an unnerving examination of consent and predation.
The film forces us to see things Lea's way, past the point of understanding or even toleration but with a truthful depiction of harsh reality.
A character study that's anchored by a moving breakthrough performance from Lily McInerny.
"Palm Trees and Power Lines" finds a truth, one it wrenches out of an experience.
