Review of Harriet (2019)

By Monica Castillo (380) for TheWrap (3,203) on 11 Sep 2019

Review of Ms. Purple (2019)

By Monica Castillo (380) for TheWrap (3,203) on 05 Sep 2019

Review of Brittany Runs a Marathon (2019)

By Monica Castillo (380) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 21 Jun 2019

Review of The Souvenir (2019)

By Monica Castillo (380) for RogerEbert.com (5,563) on 16 May 2019

Review of El Chicano (2019)

By Monica Castillo (380) for TheWrap (3,203) on 04 May 2019
