Q.V. Hough Vague Visages “‘Hi I’m Blake’ has a profound, encouraging lifeforce, especially when Jeff McQuitty and Hanan Townshend’s hard-hitting crescendos complement the subject’s perseverance.” Nov 18, 2022 Full Review Joel Fisher Battle Royale With Cheese Following Blake so closely shows a fully rounded depiction of what people go through when recovering from a brain injury. It may even inspire more of a focus in brain injuries so that people like Blake can get the help they need. Oct 16, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews
