Critical Praise for A GIRL LIKE HER:
“The movie speaks quietly but powerfully for human dignity. A Girl Like Her packsan emotional wallop greater than most other films released this year, documentary or fiction.” —Dan Schindel, OTSTE
“A Girl Like Her, Ann Fessler’s quietly devastating documentary … offers asociologically rich and important deconstruction of a devastating doublesocial standard that was in effect in those days. In revealing the painful legacy that permanently impacted so many mothers, Fessler has finally and respectfullygiven them a voice.” —Geneva Anderson, Art Hound
“A Girl Like Her,Ann Fessler’s haunting group portrait of women who surrenderedtheir children for adoption in the 1950s and ’60s juxtaposes their voices with stockarchival images from an era when wrenching human drama was buried beneathairbrushed images of family and sexuality.”— Ann Hornaday, The Washington Post
