More potent is the sense of choices made young becoming faultlines through a life, creaking under us across decades and continents. April 24, 2020 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Alan Yang has given us one immigrant's story that feels like his dad's unique, deeply felt experience, but also makes it reverberate like it's his own - and ours. April 10, 2020 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

[W]here the film stands out from other dramas of its type is in its poignant exploration of the little-discussed emotional consequences of single-mindedly pursuing the American dream. April 10, 2020 | Rating: B | Full Review…

The film feels like a three-hour epic that's been slashed to 91 minutes, with crucial details reduced to crude bullet points for economy's sake. It isn't intimate, it's small. April 10, 2020 | Full Review…

Yang's exploration of the past just about remembers to include the present day, and the end result is a movie that pays homage to how memories shape your present. July 28, 2020 | Rating: 3 / 5 | Full Review…

Perhaps the film's most profound accomplishment is the richness of the empathy it offers its characters while it examines the nuances of the past from multiple perspectives. There is no villain here ... just the walls they put up between one another. July 27, 2020 | Full Review…

Tigertail is Alan Yang's love letter to a past generation, one that gave up much of themselves so that their kids would never have to go through what they did. July 8, 2020 | Rating: B+ | Full Review…

A profound look at the stories of migrants, especially young people who arrive in foreign countries with disproportionate hopes of what will happen and face a reality from which there is no turning back. [Full review in Spanish] May 22, 2020 | Full Review…
