MOVIE REVIEWS BY CRITICS

“..Touching comedy about one woman's pet loss..”
by Duane Byrge [The Hollywood Reporter]
“..evinces an appealing sentimentality without being maudlin or only puppy-dog cute..”
by Duane Byrge [Film Journal International]
“..Year of the Dog is poignant but not sappy and darkly funny without being farcical..”
by David Fear [Time Out New York]
