"30.1. Indie-elokuvalla usein tarkoitetaan jotain vaihtoehtoisen näpsäkkää rom-comia, jonka keinot ja tarkoitusperät ovat lopulta ihan sitä samaa puurovelliä kuin Hollywoodissa. Henry Fool on tr00 indie-elokuva. Hal Hartleyn konventioille kumartelematon musta komedia taiteesta, politiikasta, ulkopuolisuudesta ja rikkoutuneesta perheestä on lävitsepääsemättömyydessään vittumainen elokuva. Se on liian pitkä, tarkoituksella itsestään etäännyttävä ja paikoitellen tylsä. Silloi"
