People
 “Oscar Sharp stands out because there is an original comedic voice at work in his films. His humour is surreal and anarchic, in the best British tradition.”              
                    - Sir Alan Parker - Midnight Express, Evita


 "One of the best short films I've seen."
                   - Ava DuVernay​ - Selma


"I fucking loved that one."
                    - Joss Whedon (re The Stabbington Application)

 "The short packs in an amazing amount. You get a little slice of life, a well-developed main character and really touching moments. It is also stunningly edited.”
                   - Mike Newell - Harry Potter, Four Weddings

 
“The direction is amazing...quite beautiful...thanks for pushing the medium forward! In a crazy, beautiful way!”                      - David Chen - Slash Film

“His work has universal appeal because it explores questions that have crossed everybody's minds.” 

                  - James King - BBC Radio 1


 "The Kármán Line was exceptional. Most of all Olivia Colman's performance ... I have rarely seen her better."
                  - Christopher Priest - Author: The 
Prestige

 "Great stuff."
                  - John Hurt - Alien, The Elephant Man

  “I really like your work.”
                  - Todd Solondz 
- Happiness, Palindromes

 "Incredibly Moving."
                  - Paul Haggis - Crash, Million Dollar Baby

 "This is a film that people really do need to see."
                  - Zoë Ball - BBC Radio 1

  “Combines lots of clever techniques to give us a real sense of what the character wants.” 
                   - Chris Collins - British Film Institute


Publications​
 "Sharp is a huge talent, masterly with tone and style."
                  - The New Yorker - Sarah Larson

 
 "Sharp has established himself as a master of creating extraordinary scenarios, yet at the same time making them feel realistic and human"
                  - Short Of The Week

 “The search for Britain’s next great film director is over.” 
                   - Sunday Telegraph

 "Oscar Sharp’s The Kármán Line is a fascinatingly surreal and moving fantasy-parable."
                  - The Guardian - 
Peter Bradshaw

 "Oscar Sharp's The Kármán Line naturally levitates above the pack, a brilliantly executed tragicomedy which simply plays out variations on a single, ingenious idea."
                   - Little White Lies


 "A quietly devastating film that may be one of the best works of art you’ll see on the big screen this year."
                    - Londonist

  "Oscar Sharp is a maverick."
                    - Flavorpill


  “Amazing. It was like watching someone’s dream.” 
                   - The Observer - Ellie Rowsell of Wolf Alice

 "Pairing deadpan tonality with the outlandish imagination of a Roald Dahl story, it’s not often that a movie so bizarre in conception succeeds so well in execution, and Sharp might very well be set to follow his protagonist’s skyward trajectory." 
                   - Filmcomment.com

 "Suggests the future of the British film Industry may be in safe hands"
                  - The List


 "This movie says in 5 mins what most hollywood movies can't say in 90 mins."
                  - Most 'liked' YouTube comment
