Caron D Speak Sunlight is one of the best movies I’ve seen in ages. The heartfelt screenplay, outstanding acting, beautiful cinematography, and excellent directing, make this coming-of-age story stand out among the rest. With Franco’s Spain as the backdrop, we learn that in facing our mortality we identify what is most important to us - and we are taken on this journey throughout the movie. The audience laughed together and shed tears together. This movie is a must see. I can’t wait to see it again! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/31/24 Full Review Steven Z Speak Sunlight tells a story that stays with you long after the show ends. Parts are heartening and parts are heartbreaking, and it all fits with perfection. While the story is the heart of the film, the scenary is beautiful and ads to the factors that create the memorability of Speak Sunlight. It has to be seen and experienced. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/30/24 Full Review Audience Member Speak Sunlight is a film that lingers long after the credits roll. Director Carol Polakoff delicately explores themes of nostalgia, love, regret, forgiveness, and the power of family. It is the story of a woman grappling with the weight of her past and the fragility of time. The stunning cinematography is bathed in warm sunlight of Spain and captures the poetic beauty of the landscape. Speak Sunlight shines like a gem and is a must-see. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/29/24 Full Review Bruno V From the beginning to the end, Speak Sunlight brings joy to the movie screen. Both lead actors have amazing performances and navigate from drama to laughter in seconds. The beautiful photography from different parts of Spain are also a must see. Nevertheless the choice of a new actor for the roll of the young kid shows sensitivity Carol Polakoff has for her characters. It's a great adventure that it will warm your heart and soul. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/17/24 Full Review David F A heartwarming film that affirms our common humanity. You will not be disappointed! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/14/24 Full Review Nicholas S This film has the touch of a filmmaker who knows how to create catharsis in the audience. It reminded me of the mastery of Ang Lee in Brokeback Mountain and Aronofsky in The Whale. I watched the film enjoying it, and all of a sudden at the end I’m sobbing uncontrollably and left with that magical haunted feeling only certain films and filmmakers are able to achieve. I saw this film in a full theater and witnessed everyone around me also sobbing. This is a sweet charming film, but its overall effect is impressive and powerful. Bravo!
