By Linda Barnard (586) for Toronto Star (3,601) on 25 May 2011

Review of Little White Lies (2010)

By Graham Young (657) for Birmingham Mail (391) on 25 Apr 2011

By Henry Fitzherbert (699) for Daily Express (UK) (2,141) on 13 Apr 2011

Review of Little White Lies (2010)

By Xan Brooks (287) for Guardian (4,584) on 13 Apr 2011

Little White Lies unspools as glossy, high-grade tosh, a sun-dappled Big Chill, without the rigour or insight required to make you care about…
