Harriet (2019) |
Erivo strikingly embodies all of Tubman's stages to glory, from enslaved-yet-defiant young woman, to bold survivor and commanding leader. It's a moving performance that lingers long after the film is over and will leave many feeling empowered. - NOW Toronto

Blow the Man Down (2019) |
Blow The Man Down is well written, well paced and completely suspenseful. The small, stellar cast does a compelling job at drawing you in, but it's the austere, dutiful Priscilla who's most captivating. - NOW Toronto
