Spout's Karina Longworth Plugs CANARY's Migrating Forms NYC Debut

Marya Murphy's picture

As much a review of the intensity of Alejandro Adams as it is of CANARY, Karina Longworth writes beautifully about our upcoming New York screening at Migrating Forms.

See CANARY on April 16th at 9:30 PM at the Anthology Film Archives: 32 Second Avenue, New York, NY.

"This second feature by Alejandro Adams confirms him as an arresting talent. [Viewers] may be fascinated to the point of repeat viewings to sort out its myriad characters and half-buried clues."
-- Dennis Harvey, Variety


"Micro in budget, macro in ambition, accomplishment, and scope, Adams's slyly withholding film prompts multiple viewings--and deserves them."
-- Jim Ridley, Village Voice


"Wildly ambitious...an overwhelming and surprisingly fresh-feeling sense of dystopian dread."
-- Karina Longworth, Spout


"[CANARY is] terrific...very creepy and uncanny. It's quite an achievement."
-- Phillip Lopate


"Mysterious, elliptical, Bresson-like. [CANARY] is to biotech what PRIMER was to time-travel."
-- Richard von Busack, Metro
