Press

“It’s clear from Girlhood that Colwell has been a confident writer for far longer than I’ve known her, but this script reaches for a new level of formal ambition as well as new depths of feeling, and it succeeds brilliantly.” — The Tangential

“It feels real, because it is real.” — MinnyApple
