Critic Reviews

His story is instructive, as well as chilling and occasionally hilarious -- a brief, probably foredoomed career during which a would-be Orson Welles, playing shamelessly to the camera, draws from a bottomless cesspool of hubris, bile and rage.Full Review

Joe Morgenstern
Wall Street Journal

The movie is pieced together out of uneven footage, and the idea of a documentary seems to have occurred in the midst of filming.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

Overnight is about all kinds of in-the-moment emotional rawness.Full Review

Wesley Morris
Boston Globe

I do wish that Overnight caught in more precise detail what Duffy, who finally made his film on the cheap at an obscure studio, did to tick off the Miramax powers. Imagining it, though, is half the fun.Full Review

Owen Gleiberman
Entertainment Weekly

As Overnight progresses and its title grows increasingly ironic, it paints a mesmerizing portrait of a profane, overbearing monster engaged in a drawn-out act of professional suicide.Full Review
