I can only give an opinion based upon seeing a few of his films.
He's hit and miss in my book but I respect his attempts.
My favorite Hartley Film is 'Henry Fool'...I love this one and it speaks to me as a writer...Am I Henry Fool?...quite possibly but as I admire his conviction, I only hope to keep any that I have.
by the Same token...I disliked 'Flirt' whereas I've heard a lot of praise for this film. It seemed like an exercise and not even one that was all that interesting or insightful in my opinion.
Been meaning to see 'No Such Thing' for some time now and they're going to be a screening of it soon so I'll likely catch it.
Just a quick opinion,
Martin
