STRAY DOG largely succeeds because Granik's technique complements her subject. Both he and the film are modest in their goals and cherish the value of honesty.

In her unobtrusively assured portrait of an interracial, economically disadvantaged community, Granik has crafted a much-needed corrective to the commonly held belief that poor people are blind to each other and the world at large. Full Review

Stray Dog shows us again and again, through its protagonist's words and actions, that you can't judge a book by its cover, or its red neck. Full Review

Expertly playing with our preconceived notions, Granik's multidimensional portrait also serves as a telling state-of-the-union address, as seen through the caring eyes of her philosophical main subject. Full Review

No stranger to caricature-smashing, studied authenticity, WINTER'S BONE filmmaker Debra Granik applies her trademark immersive approach to her first documentary, STRAY DOG, with equally revealing results.

Granik breaks bones: released from dark psychological drama, she proves herself a master of undercurrent and portent and abiding sorrow as she observes a family under stress in our increasingly hard times... intimate, immersive and wholly compelling. Full Review
