Saint Maud's reviews
Media reviews
Slashfilm
"Saint Maud is, in its uniqueness, always a pleasure, but it?s also, by the end, a very difficult watch. Glass keeps her audience on our toes, always surprising us, challenging us, provoking us. The film?s a marvelous thing in its own right but also a thrilling invitation to follow this filmmaker wherever she dares to take us next".
Indiewire
"Morffyd Clark and Jennifer Ehle are excellent in an intense two-hander about a creepy nurse who believes that her patients are possessed...[an] extremely promising debut".
The Hollywood Reporter
"That ambiguity of genre, never entirely resolved, may frustrate some viewers, but it's clear Glass knows exactly what she's doing as she keeps adding thin layers of meaning and texture to the narrative. This smart, sinister work represents a very arresting calling card which augurs very well for her future prospects".
Collider
"Saint Maud?s impact only gets stronger as it brews, building to a stunning, shocking finale that knocks whatever wind you have left out of you right before the credits roll. But this is not a movie built around twists and gotchas, and there?s no point in trying to outsmart it. This is a film that washes over you and closes in, sealing the deal with a walloping, if not surprising stinger that lands like the hammer of god".
Variety
"Simultaneously skeptical and inquisitive, Glass?s formidable debut is a film that, so to speak, suspends its own disbelief: It?s not God-fearing, but its unnerving anatomy of a follower does consider whether, why and how God should be someone to fear in the first place".
