Sarah Gopaul Digital Journal Oct 8
There’s a dreary quality to the film. It’s like dust from the mine sapped the colour out of everything, so [all the characters are] just lacklustre versions of what they could be. Go to Full Review

7/10
“Little Lorraine” delivers a haunting and atmospheric portrait of a community in crisis, grounded by strong performances and a clear-eyed refusal to romanticize the desperation that drives ordinary people to crime. Go to Full Review
Louis Skye (Ronita Roy Mohan) Stereo Geeks (Podcast) Sep 14
It’s those little things that made Little Lorraine keep me staring up at the screen. As well as the breadth of characters around the three miners. The film builds out the entire world. Everybody matters. The wives have important roles beyond being wives. Go to Full Review

3/5
The film struggles at times with its tonal balance, characterizations and accent work, but it also tackles regional and historical specificities that often go unremarked upon such as job security in an economically depressed small town. Go to Full Review
Courtney Small That Shelf Sep 13
Capturing the ways desperation can lead to choices with steep consequences; Little Lorraine is taut crime drama that shows what can occur when a community is pushed to the brink. Go to Full Review

4/5
Little Lorraine is a well-made crime drama focusing more on its characters and the impact their actions have on those around them led by a strong cast. Go to Full Review
