Keith Watson Daily Telegraph (UK) For all the family anecdotes and readings of Tish’s formidably trenchant view, it’s the pictures here that are worth a thousand words. Rated: 4/5 Apr 2, 2024 Full Review Wendy Ide Observer (UK) [An] engrossing, affectionate film... Rated: 3/5 Nov 19, 2023 Full Review Kevin Maher The Times (UK) ... A documentary that takes a hammer to the myth that a rags-to-riches artistic ascension awaits the bold. Rated: 4/5 Nov 17, 2023 Full Review Kathy Fennessy Video Librarian Magazine Tish is a fine documentary about an empathetic artist who deserved to be better known, especially in her own country. Her work functions as part of a continuum with the kitchen sink dramas filmmakers like Tony Richardson and Ken Loach made in the 1960s. Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 5, 2025 Full Review Marc Glassman POV Magazine The film uses the extraordinary photos made by Tish, then in her early 20s, to recapture the lives of youths in Newcastle, particularly in the tough, working class Elswick district. Jun 26, 2024 Full Review Edward Porter Sunday Times (UK) It’s fitting that this documentary (directed by Paul Sng) also has a strong personal touch.
