Leave your thoughts about This Much I Know to Be True.
| The New York TimesGlenn KennyA rather fun Nick Cave movie might not have been on your 2022 bingo card, but here we are. |
| Screen DailyWendy IdeIt’s simply executed but undeniably powerful in its lean, stripped back elegance. |
| VarietyJessica KiangThis remarkable performance documentary may be for the Nick Cave-curious exclusively, but for them (us) it is close to essential. |
| RogerEbert.comBrian TallericoThis Much I Know to Be True is masterfully directed, an example of when a filmmaker and a musician are working in unison creatively instead of just going through the motions. |
| Slant MagazineChuck BowenThe accumulating effect of this airy and resonant film’s formal devices is that of a heartbroken artist learning to reengage with society. |
| ColliderRoss BonaimeThis Much I Know to Be True might not dig as deep into the lives of Cave and Ellis as one might hope for a film billed as a documentary, but the performances captured here more than make up for that. |
| The Hollywood ReporterDavid RooneyPerhaps more than anything, the doc celebrates the remarkable creative union between Cave and his chief collaborator and bandmate Warren Ellis. |
| The Observer (UK)Mark KermodeThe atmosphere is stripped down and austere, allowing the songs to speak for themselves as they transport us from this world to the next. |
| NMEAndrew TrendellAt the core of This Much I Know To Be True are sumptuously-shot performances of choice tracks from the Bad Seeds’ ethereal ‘Ghosteen’ and Cave & Ellis’ lockdown revelation record ‘Carnage’, all filmed in breathtaking arthouse style in an abandoned factory in Bristol. |
| EmpireJordan KingMusically sublime, gracefully directed, and filled with an inspiring optimism that couldn’t be more timely, this is another first-class exercise in capturing music on film from Dominik, Cave and Ellis. |
