Ben Kenigsberg New York Times 02/18/2016
Ms. Goldstein gives a performance that requires her to swing between disarming and loathsome. She demonstrates impressive skill in slowly peeling away her character's charm. Go to Full Review Nick Prigge Slant Magazine 02/15/2016
3/4
Throughout, Pavan Moondi and Brian Robertson purposely indulge Hollywood formula only to subvert it. Go to Full Review Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter 08/12/2015
That she nonetheless emerges as all too relatable is a credit to Moondi's astute screenplay and the nerve-rattling performance by its lead performer, here making an auspicious acting debut. Go to Full Review Kevin Jagernauth The Playlist 08/12/2015
B+
Diamond Tongues is refreshing because it isn't an indictment of a demographic, or even of Edith, but is a portrait of a young woman whose ambition has curdled into something more nasty along the way. Go to Full Review David Berry National Post 08/12/2015
3/4
The second feature by Pavan Moondi and Brian Robertson, Diamond Tongues lives in its careful attention to detail, the meticulous but breezy way it captures Edith's meandering life as much as her increasingly destructive disenchantment. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
