Leave your thoughts about Scarecrow.
| Slant MagazineBudd WilkinsScarecrow embraces sprawl of both the narrative and geographical variety with freewheeling abandon. |
| Time Out LondonDave CalhounScarecrow’ feels like an existential fairytale squarely rooted in the reality of America’s fraying backroads and small towns. It’s all a little rambling and anarchic, but later scenes in a jail have real bite. And when the sadness behind Lion’s smile is revealed, it’s also genuinely moving. |
| Total FilmTom DawsonIt’s strong on the details of itinerant life, and allows plotting to take a back seat to character. |
| Time OutKeith UhlichHollywood movies have rarely spoken such tough and tender truths. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger Ebertit is a well-acted movie and for long stretches we're hoping it will work. |
| Village VoiceAlan ScherstuhlA flawed, fascinating testament to a time of discovery in Hollywood: of how stories could be told onscreen, of what great actors might find within themselves, of just what in the hell this country had become in the late-'60s crackup. |
| The New York TimesVincent CanbyIt all goes decisively wrong when Jerry Schatzberg, the director, and Garry Michael White, who wrote the screenplay, decide to saddle the pair with a poetic vision that suddenly makes everything needlessly phony. |
