Monday, June 9, 2014 (2013) Caroline And Jackie DRAMA (Contains spoilers) Independent, plot less movie written and directed by Adam Christian Clark starring two very close sisters by the names of Caroline and Jackie played by Marguerite Moreau and Bitsie Tulloch. What was expected to be was a formal visit from Caroline celebrating her birthday with her sister Jackie and her boyfriend at her house who in turn became sidetracked to celebrate it with other people at a nearby restaurant. And upon everybody coming back to Jackie's house again, her sister Caroline started to humiliate her right on front of people with negative assumptions made about her, that Jackie is an alcoholic and a bulimic who's addicted to medication. But as the movie is progressing, and as it turns out, it's Caroline who's really the nut job. If viewers were to watch this, one is going to expect many improvised pointless babblings happening throughout about eating and drinking more, as well as lighting some fireworks. I was also incapable to understand how some of the worst things are said about Jackie the person, and then when viewers do see her, she is the total opposite of all the bad things said about her, that she's an alcoholic, and a bulimic as well as a person who is addicted to drugs. This is a perfect example of a movie that's contradicted itself. I mean, even Jackie's live-in boyfriend actually believes she is all of those bad things- how is this possible? Bitsie Tulloch as Caroline is great in this movie, but this movie doesn't do anything for her. 2 out of 4 stars

John DeFore

Hollywood Reporter

Much of the truth is conveyed in the two leads' performances, both of them itchy and disagreeable in the manner of someone trying to prevent a too-familiar conflict from bubbling up again.

New York Times

It captures the awkwardness, loneliness and unacknowledged desperation that haunt us all but that are particularly poignant when seen among attractive 30-somethings.

Time Out

Before long, the film spills over into a ... somewhat questionable ... portrait of one hysterical woman.

Rated: 2/5

We Got This Covered

As a first-time feature film writer and director, Clark proves his ability of not only bringing realistic issues to the screen, but also in casting actors who naturally and easily become in tuned with their characters.

Rated: 7.5/10

Marguerite Moreau (Caroline) and Bitsy Tulloch (Jackie) play their yin/yang roles with a gleaming intensity as the story veers increasingly stranger and darker.
