Songs My Brothers Taught Me Reviews

Movie Reviews

• writer-director Chloe Zhao works methodically to set up Johnny's situation, while also capturing in poetic detail the dead-end lives of poverty, alcoholism and hopelessness on the reservation

  by Sean Means [Salt Lake Tribune ]

• this is a lilting, immersive film that has an emotional afterglow

  by Amber Wilkinson [Eye for Film ]

• its poetic minimalism is atmospheric, with eventual emotional payoff in some incisively written scenes and a surprisingly effusive wrap-up

  by Dennis Harvey [Variety ]

• a quintessential example of a particular kind of non-commercial Sundance movie, the project clearly was made with profound respect for its subjects

  by David Rooney [Hollywood Reporter ]
