Reviews

  • "It’s clear that both Pusic and the actors, who also include Leah Harvey as one of TUESDAY’s nurses, care about the characters. And because they do, the story resonates even more strongly, especially in its poignant and thoughtful ending."
    - Observer
  • "Diana O. Pusic reaches for the stars with her feature debut, and the ambitious allegory TUESDAY mostly takes flight."
    - Fionnuala Halligan
  • "The details and humanity of Pusić’s storytelling have an emotional intelligence and vivid imagination that strike at the core of our existence. It’s a wonderfully realized and compassionate film, anchored by Louis-Dreyfus’ astounding performance."
    - Deep Focus Review
  • "s a woman who has pushed away a lot of hard truths, Louis-Dreyfus delves into a sphere of emotion that she’s never before explored onscreen."
