Little Pink House Reviews
Exquisite cinematography by Alexandre Lehmann is as important as Catherine Keener's powerful performance as Susette Kelo in evoking the power of home.

"Litte Pink House" feels like it's only ever checking off the requisite moments of civic outrage, while failing to connect with viewers on a level that's deeper than the average made-for-온라인카지노추천 issue-of-the-week movie.
| Original Score: 2/4 | May 31, 2018
A workmanlike dramatization of a controversial Supreme Court decision that never quite makes a case for itself.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | May 10, 2018
Little Pink House is not one of the great civil rights movies (it's no Loving or To Kill a Mockingbird), but its slow, steady charm never lets go of the fact that these are people's homes on the line.
| Original Score: 3/5 | May 3, 2018
Keener's performance keeps the film grounded even as blunt scenes of the opposing camp's machinations flirt with soap opera villainy.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | May 3, 2018
The cast works diligently, and Keener is scrappy but calm throughout, with a convincing naturalism as a woman with tremendous strength and a powerful belief in civil rights.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 20, 2018
The movie often seems to have a hard time making up its mind whether it wants to be The Insider or Mean Girls.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 20, 2018
If the story's political and personal nuances have been a bit flattened in Balaker's script, keeping proceedings in a movie-of-the-week register, this "Little Pink House" nonetheless retains what property developers would call good bones.

Palely photographed and anchored by a quiet, rather weary performance from Ms. Keener, "Little Pink House" is a peculiarly enervated affair.
| Apr 19, 2018
It's an entertaining movie; but to an extent it's also a public service, in that it persuades the audience to think about an issue it might never have previously considered.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 18, 2018
Like Erin Brockovich for eminent domain, Little Pink House does well to explain the thorny legal issue at its center without getting bogged down in minutiae.

The film is mostly a sobering dramatization of a true and controversial story in recent Connecticut history.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 16, 2018
Little Pink House brings urgency to a fascinating, underexplored theme.
