Too Much; Poisoned: Killer in the Post

“Too Much is one of the most honest, realistic depictions of a modern romance I’ve ever seen. The grit of Girls is gone, but Lena Dunham’s talent for finding the truth in messy relationships shines through.”
Emily Baker, The i

“It’s sort of a rom-com (and there are nods to various British comedies, TV classics and Jane Austen throughout), but it’s a rom-com with bite, noir and pin-sharp observations that show that Dunham’s writing still sparkles.”
Carol Midgley, The Times

“As you might expect if you know Dunham’s work, it is sharp, knowing and often funny. But it’s also a self-consciously hip romcom with the whiniest leading man. By the end, I didn’t care if they lived happily ever after or not, as long as they weren’t doing it in my earshot.”
Anita Singh, The Telegraph

“The irreducible fact remains that Too Much would not be enough from anyone. From Dunham, it is way, way too little.”
Lucy Mangan, The Guardian

“Poisoned is a meticulous chronicle of the equally meticulous investigation conducted by Times journalist James Beal into the identity of the online supplier of lethal chemicals to people who had congregated on a forum where they shared their suicidal thoughts, discussed methods and, often, plans for taking their own lives.”
Lucy Mangan, The Guardian

“I already knew the story but that didn’t make watching a documentary based on it any less shocking. Or terrifying. It is always wretched watching films such as this to note the stark contrast between the bright, energetic-looking young people we see in old photos and social media videos and the dark reality of what their inner torment drove them to do.”
