Rating: 2/4 -- The experience of watching "James White" is like being shut up in a small, dark, airless room ... a sickroom. Full Review

Abbott contributes a smart, soulful performance, but Nixon keeps threatening to walk away with the movie as the mother, who can't get enough of life and whose physical decay is colored by rage, defiance, and terror. Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- James White is not an enjoyable film, but it amply fulfills its goal in being a piece that resonates honestly with its audience. Full Review

Rating: 3/4 -- An accomplished and compelling film by writer/director Josh Mond, James White is also pretty much a bummer. Full Review
Philadelphia Inquirer

A minimal approach creates an unflinching character study that relies on performance over traditional narrative. Full Review

It gives a very brief, specific glimpse of a situation touching on the universal experience of loss, and through it delivers an incredibly strong drama. Full Review

JAMES WHITE gets up close and personal in often discomfiting ways, but it’s never exploitative or glib. It hits the highs, and the rock bottoms, and all the damnable stuff in between.

Product Description:

A hedonistic young New Yorker (Christopher Abbott) is torn between his caring for his terminally ill mother (Cynthia Nixon) and his self-destructive indulgence in drugs and alcohol. As his mothers' condition worsens, the stress pushes James to a breaking point in this emotional family drama from director Josh Mond.
