	Media	Author	Review
		Kate Erbland IndieWire	"Nevins’ meticulously made film, bolstered by editing from Azin Samari, delivers a strong message of hope"
		Nick Schager Variety	"Illuminating and thought-provoking (...) Proficient on all technical fronts, the doc embraces the fundamental allure of its subject"
		John Anderson The Wall Street Journal	"There’s some lovely filmmaking (...) The intentions are good, both behind the camera and in front of it (...) What’s largely missing in 'Tiny Shoulders' (...) is the child’s-eye view."
		Jason Bailey Village Voice	"The result is a thoughtful, nuanced portrait of (for better or worse) an American icon."
