Pensive, precise and with an elegant, looping structure, this is a first-rate piece of direction from Lowery, who also wrote the screenplay.

[G]et on the wavelength of this mesmerizing, singularly unusual genre experiment and the undead being at its center stops looking so silly. -- Grade: A-

It is a very interesting experimental piece, although not always convincing, but at least it is different in its intentions and fascinating in its beautiful composition. [Full Review in Spanish] Full Review

[A Ghost Story] is a thought-provoking, slow-moving film that is intense, but not scary. Full Review

4 stars out of 4 -- The film is a ghost story, in the sense that there’s a ghost in it, but it’s also many other things: a love story, a science fiction-inflected story about time travel and time loops, and a story about loneliness and denial...

The film's sense of time and space -- past, present and future -- grows steadily more elastic, porous, infinite.

Product Description:

A dead man (Casey Affleck) returns home to haunt his wife (Rooney Mara), manifesting as a ghost wearing a sheet with eyeholes over his head. He remains stuck in the house even after she moves out, and observes different sets of occupants over the course of several decades. At the same time, he tries to communicate with a ghost living in the house next door. Written and directed by David Lowery (PETE'S DRAGON, AIN'T THEM BODIES SAINTS).
