“One of the top 10 films of 2008… Fling deserves to be mentioned alongside One Night Stand and sex, lies, and videotape — two other movies that brilliantly explore taboo sexual relationships.”
Shawn Edwards, Fox-TV
“Every frame of Fling is drenched in danger and desire.”
Brandon K. Thorp, The New Times
“In the ‘60s there was Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice; in the ‘80s sex, lies, and videotape; the ‘90s, Ang Lee’s The Ice Storm… But Muller, Boersma and a ridiculously attractive young cast put a contemporary spin on this edgy relationship movie.”
Bob Butler, The Kansas City Star
Fling (internationally titled Lie to Me) is the award-winning debut feature from writer/director John Stewart Muller.
