An impressive debut feature from the young, independent American film-maker Tom Kalin.

Rating: 2/5 --
Faux artsy take on the Leopold-Loeb case.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Rating: B+ --
As a dark, moody and stylized (the film is shot in b/w) poem of love and madness Swoon is effective, but as social polemic on contemporary gay issues, it's strained; even so, it's a striking feature debut.

Rating: 3/4 --
Swoon goes much deeper than the other studies of the Frank case, because it tries to show exactly how the psychosexual balance between the two killers made a murder possible, when neither Leopold nor Loeb could possibly have killed by himself.

Rating: 2/5 --
Moody, dispassionate take on the savagery of crime that neither illuminates nor captivates.
Mixed Reviews
Rating: 5/5 --
An exotic mood piece, based on the infamous Leopold-Loeb case, that probably didn't win director Tom Kalin many friends in the gay community.
