      What to Know

      Critics Consensus

      Joanna Arnow finds bleak humor in the struggle to connect with The Feeling That the Time for Doing Something Has Passed, a deadpan comedy that discomfits as confidently as it amuses.

      Michael Phillips Chicago Tribune Some films are destined for nervous laughter, with enough of a pungent aftertaste to linger. This is one of them. Rated: 3/4 May 3, 2024 Full Review Richard Brody New Yorker Arnow’s poignant and original performance—refined in its awkwardness, exalted in its degradation, touched with grace in its rude self-presentation—is a double masterwork of acting and directing. Apr 29, 2024 Full Review Katie Rife RogerEbert.com Joanna Arnow’s second feature is a symphony of ambient embarrassment. Rated: 3.5/4 Apr 26, 2024 Full Review Christopher Lloyd The Film Yap Joanna Arnow's off-putting yet oddly compelling portrait of a woman drifting through life, from BDSM relationships to a stultifying corporate job to her bothersome family. Rated: 3.5/5 May 18, 2024 Full Review Carla Hay Culture Mix Viewers of this unique but often-repetitive film about BDSM sex and social isolation must be willing to appreciate the very dry and deadpan comedy that is the opposite of Woody Allen's talkative and fidgety films about neurotic New Yorkers. May 18, 2024 Full Review Brandon Judell Brandon Judell (Medium) Consider that if Woody Allen had been born a woman and had showcased nudity in his works, plus sported a strong "female gaze," we might not need Ms. Arnow to direct films, but since Woody wasn't, doesn't, and hasn't, Ms. Arnow fills a huge vacancy. Rated: 8/10 May 17, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

      Joe C A Dostoyevsky movie, in that all of the characters are unlikeable and you wait for the story to kick in until you realize there really isn't one. On the plus side, it's a courageous exercise in body and sex positivity for the writer/director/lead actor. Healthy self image and relationships, not so much. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 05/12/24 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
