Owen Gleiberman wrote in his review that director Rose Glass “made a midnight noir that shoots over the top of our expectations but lands where it should, at a place where even valorous people have to go to extremes.”
In a February interview with PvNew, Glass said that the film allowed her to push herself and test what she could and could not do: “I think we liked the idea of doing a romance that was an anti-romance, pushing against the idea that romantic love is this aspirational thing that brings out the best in people.”
