True Things

Ends up feeling more like a treatise on toxic boyfriends than the free-floating exploration of forbidden sexuality that it had first promised.

Without the two leads, “True Things” doesn’t offer much.

I can imagine that this cautionary tale will have its supporters, but I found Kate such an infuriating character that it was extremely difficult to sympathise with her.

A raw and passionate look at the type of love that can be both all-encompassing and destructive, passionate and dangerous.

For those of you who miss films made by adults and for adults, films which treat things like sex and loneliness with respect and honesty, True Things isn't to be missed.

In the end, Wilson and Wootliff make this picture work by emphasizing the desperation and dreariness of Kate’s life, defined by her nagging mother and micro-managing boss.

Tom Burke and a superb Ruth Wilson star in True Things, Harry Wootliff’s British drama about a tender (then toxic) romance that is visually interesting but gradually peters out.

True Things is a compelling psychological drama anchored by a strong performance from Tom Burke.

A refreshingly adult drama about infatuation and self-sabotage, True Thing leaves a strong impression, despite a disappointing ending.

Many have had bigger careers than British actress Ruth Wilson, but few have had more interesting, varied and courageous ones. Never doing the same character twice or taking the easy way out.
