A mother (Julia Louis-Dreyfus, in a profoundly moving performance) and her teenage daughter (Lola Petticrew) must confront Death when it arrives in the form of an astonishing talking bird. From debut filmmaker Daina O. Pusić, Tuesday is a heart-rending fairy tale about the echoes of loss and finding resilience in the unexpected.

Critics Consensus

A meditation on mortality full of risky stylistic gambits, Tuesday achieves real grace thanks to Julia Louis-Dreyfus' committed performance and director Daina Oniunas-Pusic's impressive ambition.

Mark Olsen

Los Angeles Times

Without the power and nuance that Louis-Dreyfus brings to the role, the drama would not have nearly as much spine or impact as it does.

Like the under-seen "A Monster Calls," this movie is frank about the messiness of the emotions around death.

...has the incongruous feel of a lovely sort of last rites.

Tuesday captures its most transcendent truths in its closing moments, when all is pared back and it’s just Louis-Dreyfus sitting alone after everything has gone quiet. No more rapping bird; just a portrait of the pain and poetry of life amid death.

Rated: 7/10

The inherent tension in “Tuesday” is how can you kill someone that you love more than yourself or allow them to die. Zora’s road trip with Tuesday makes her appreciate that death is a gift—the “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” reference is intentional.

Overly ridiculous. Didn’t even make me cry and should have been the easiest movie cry in the world. JLD is good but don’t know why she said yes to this

Very interesting way to portray death. The two stars were really good actors. I especially liked the young girl who was dying. She portrayed the role extremely well.

This was an exercise in trying to be an artistic film but was instead a trying time for the viewer. Do not waste your time, it was horrific. I would not have even given a half star if it was not for the acting of Ms. Dreyfus. I am not a stupid person, but this was a waste of producer's money, a waste of mine, and a waste of symbolism and talent.

I wish I had done my homework before seeing this. Actually, "seeing this" is a huge stretch because I left after maybe 10 minutes. Enough. PS I saw it was an Indie film, that's why I wanted to see it but..oh well..

Rated 1 out of 5 stars

Thought provoking, but also very slow. I enjoyed it but would not go see it again.
