Critic Reviews of "Mother Of George"
Philadelphia InquirerNovember 22, 2013After a while it's hard to take Dosunmu's barrage of off-center compositions ... dialogue sequences that have the actor converse with empty space, and close-ups that reduce faces and objects to blobs of light.
Minneapolis Star TribuneNovember 21, 2013It takes about 60 seconds before the elegant "Mother of George" has you firmly inside the world it has created.
Detroit NewsOctober 18, 2013In the end, "George" becomes almost as irritating as that mother-in-law.
Arizona RepublicOctober 17, 2013It's a powerfully sensual movie, gorgeously lensed colors and textures conveying its characters emotional states while thoughtfully exploring the range of human sexuality through Adenike's experience.
San Francisco ChronicleOctober 10, 2013The whole cast is good, but the film wouldn't work without a great performance from Gurira, who is of Zimbabwean descent.
Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)March 24, 2014Has the advantage of novelty and authenticity, but Dosunmu's ellipitical and self-consciously tasteful approach robs the material of some of its power...
Ozus' World Movie ReviewsJanuary 07, 2014An engaging immigrant drama of the traditional Nigerian experience in NYC.
Laramie Movie ScopeNovember 25, 2013There is a lot of wisdom in this film. There is strength in the old traditions, and error, too. In America, many people don't have these old traditions to guide them. They are something to hold onto, and that is a comfort.
St. Paul Pioneer PressNovember 21, 2013It's a beautiful and heartbreaking film.
OregonianOctober 16, 2013Just when it seems as if there are no new worlds for cinema to explore, a movie like "Mother of George" comes along to prove otherwise.
Eye for FilmOctober 09, 2013The joy is in the detail of Dosunmu's film, the nuance of a relationship as richly complex as the African print dresses that Adenike favours.
