The film was critically acclaimed for combining documentary and narrative traditions into a lyrical study of memory and loss. It was featured in the 2013 Whitney Biennial. His latest feature, ''I Used to Be Darker'', conceived as a melodrama, showcased his ability to bring "melancholic tones" to life on the celluloid.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.indiewire.com/article/sundance-review-moving-beyond-putty-hill-matthew-porterfield-turns-to-music-with-melancholic-drama-i-used-to-be-darker )〕 The screenplay was co-written by Amy Belk and starred musicians Ned Oldham and Kim Taylor alongside newcomers Hannah Gross and Deragh Campbell.
