The past may never be done with us, but Lord, do we wish Franco was done with our literary heritage.

As I Lay Dying tries to adapt the impossible, but unfortunately it is bested by Faulkner's weighty source material.
October 18, 2013
Franco may prove that he has a fresh visual eye, but the highly emotive story is oddly uninvolving.

A qualified, perfectly respectable success

Some of the filming techniques are overused and the monologues are a bit too circuitous, but As I Lay Dying has the ability to be quite striking at times and its impulsive structure can be viewed as both an asset and a defect.

Faulkner fans... need not be up in arms about this version of his Nobel Prize winner.
October 10, 2013
As a whole ... "As I Lay Dying" conveys some of Faulkner's themes, and the details of the Bundren family story, with clarity and concision.

Both brilliant and maddening

It remains to be seen whether James Franco can live up to his outsized ambitions.
October 24, 2013
What Franco came up with... is messy, bizarre, muted, and confusing, but it's also heartfelt and personal. It takes more risks than most movies.
October 10, 2013
Like Franco's other directorial efforts, it ends up coming across as an academic art object, somewhere halfway between a graduate thesis and a video installation-interesting, but only in context.

I don't pretend to have a clue how to adapt William Faulkner's "As I Lay Dying" for the screen, but unlike James Franco, I, at least, didn't try.
