Dionar Hidalgo Algo Más Que Cine May 16
6/10
Warm, sensitive, and anchored by Elisabeth Martínez, this reimagining of Mi querida señorita updates the original with honesty and heart, even if its need to explain everything weakens its emotional subtlety. Go to Full Review

4/5
The film doesn't achieve the impact or subtlety of the original, but it does leave a rather revealing feeling: that society hasn't changed as much as we'd like to think when it comes to real inclusion...[Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

3/5
This melodramatic message film gets a little too didactic, but its heart is in the right place and the cast lifts it up. Go to Full Review

2.5/5
It's a failed attempt that shows promise but doesn't fully realize its potential, though it does manage to be a feel-good movie that brings a smile to your face. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

Horror fan 4 @Horrorfan4life 2d What a powerful performance and I couldn't imagine what it would be like to live in her shoes. People can be so cruel these day's. The struggle is real and I hope people have a better understanding about what others are going through. I loved the characters and other performances as well.

See more Bill T. @btreakle May 26 “My Dearest Senorita “ This was the story of both love and tragedy and betrayal and abuse and understanding. A story about a young person seeking their true identity as to who they are and to recover from medical procedures that were done as a child. I would like to say that this is a movie about coming of age in some ways it was and in other ways it’s a movie of self-awareness and understanding your own personal body and experience. All in all I thought it was a a good movie. See more Marian A @RT59407176 May 11 This is a perfect movie. Much needed. This is a reality. And I loved the sincerity of it. Totally recommended.
