“The challenges and vicissitudes of living with cerebral palsy are made quite clear in YOUR FRIEND, MEMPHIS a sympathetic, up-close documentary that traces a few years in the life of a young man... Might there be further installments? One would hope so for everyone’s sake.”
--DEADLINE "...A Must-Watch Documentary... It’s a wrenching but worthwhile coming-of-age tale that left me angry with Texas’s disability policies, hopeful for Memphis’s future, and eager for a sequel." --TEXAS MONTHLY “...YOUR FRIEND, MEMPHIS is an important slice of life, debunking the somehow persistent societal idea that disabled people should be either miserable or incapable of accessing the world... [it's] an exceptional film because it leans into the messiness of reality... [it's] vital viewing." --DAILY GRINDHOUSE "[YOUR FRIEND MEMPHIS] captures palpable awkwardness, lets tender moments ring out, and doesn’t back down during moments that will cause most viewers to brace with expectations of harsh impacts... The message sticks: Memphis is stubborn, but he’s as free as can be” --AUSTIN CHRONICLE “A tender and candid... YOUR FRIEND, MEMPHIS... warms your heart and challenges your perception of what it means to live.” --FILM THREAT |
