Filmmaker Bruce Weber pays tribute to his dogs and those of his friends.

London Evening Standard

Fascinating just as a microcosm of one man's personality and life.

Rated: 2/5

If this epistolary documentary - voiced aloud with pictures to the photographer/film-maker's favourite pup and co-canines - meandered any more than it does, it could be arrested for vagrancy.

Daily Telegraph (UK)

It's as precious and disarming as Weber's films always are, albeit with even more slo-mo shots of wet mutts at the seaside than usual.

It remains eminently watchable and there's no doubting the affection Weber feels for his chums, pedigree or otherwise.

If you don't have a dog waiting for you at home after seeing A Letter to True, you'll want one.

A weird one, this. I kept falling asleep during it and the dogs featured later in my dreams. Thankfully the closing song by Jimmy Durante didn't stay in my consciousness.
