Radheyan Simonpillai CTV's Your Morning A small, lovely film about the at times unsettling nature of settling in a new home and the strength it takes to build human connections. Jun 30, 2023 Full Review Drew Gregory Autostraddle Rodriguez makes films that require patience. But if you give yourself over to them, the rewards will burrow their way deeper inside you than more conventional work. Sep 25, 2022 Full Review Karen Gordon Original Cin She’s not aiming at manipulating our emotions or judging her characters. And she doesn’t artificially build tension or come to climax points. Rodriguez's unobtrusive, seemingly offhand approach ends up bringing us closer to the characters. Rated: B Jul 4, 2023 Full Review Anne Brodie What She Said meditative, determinedly slow-paced TIFF entry, the immigration story follows a Colombian lawyer who flees to Canada. Hidden in the trunk of a car, she makes it across the US border to Toronto. Dir Lina Rodriguez’ love for the city is clear Rated: 2/4 Jun 30, 2023 Full Review Eric Marchen Rogers TV Rodriguez shows So Much Tenderness as a versatile director whose latest film lingers long after watching. Rated: B+ Jun 30, 2023 Full Review Alex Heeney Seventh Row After the first thirty-ish minutes of So Much Tenderness, the film shifts away from being one about the jarring disorientation and displacement of the immigration experience.
