Review of My Friend Dahmer (2017) by Glenn Kenny for The New York Times — 02 Nov 2017
This film is sensitively wrought. It’s credible in its evocation of mid-’70s suburbia. The acting is excellent throughout, and Ross Lynch in the role of Dahmer elicits genuine sympathy for an increasingly lost but not yet monstrous soul.
But in abandoning the subjective perspective of the graphic novel, My Friend Dahmer feels a little lacking in purpose.
