“None more queasy. None more strange. None more alienating.” 4/5 – The Irish Times
“Defiantly, divinely Stricklandian.” 4/5 – Empire
“A knowingly pretentious and frequently funny exploration of the creative process from a filmmaker who sees the world like no-one else.” 4/5 – The Scotsman
“There are plenty of filmmakers who do weird for the sake of it, but Strickland has the knack of making the strangeness look and sound so beautiful.” 4/5 – Stardust Magazine
“Few non-fiction films released this year have done a better job of encapsulating their protagonist. Few have so rigorously opened up a hidden world.” 4/5 – The Irish Times
“Kim Bartley spends three years on Wyoming’s Wind River reservation for a poignant study of Native American life.” – Screendaily
“Pure Grit is not just a factual, informative documentary but a story that delves deep into the life of its subject, Sharmaine Weed.” Film Threat
