Actor/Film Reviews

"…one of the weirdest first kisses in cinema history.
As for Prediger…she certainly has potential, despite this underwritten first role".
- Peter Debruge, Variety

"Most props go to Jennifer Prediger who plays the female lead, Kate. Prediger presents Kate as just sexy enough to be infuriating; it's a marvelous performance and, with luck, we'll see her in more films."
UGO

"…the character of Kate, played so wonderfully by Jennifer Prediger. …something of a narrative pariah, there is a sense of truth that is derived from this really engaging and truthful performance."
Gordon and the Whale

"His life is changed when he meets Kate (the delightful Jennifer Prediger) a journalist he met on the random social network."
The Criterion Cast

"The film stints on Kate’s identity; this is very much a guy film, a work of melancholy bromanticism… Here, the phrase “Write on my wall” comes off as cold as concrete."
