Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Just when you think "Tiny Furniture" is of the nothing-happens school of indie-filmdom, something more dramatic happens.
Sharp observations, thin on entertainment value -- "Mumblecore" at its heart.
Dunham has a sharp eye for visual composition and a sharp ear, too.
There's not much to it, but you do sense, after watching it, that this filmmaker might someday make something very good, once she starts looking beyond her own immediate vicinity.
