Patrik-Ian Polk makes a huge artistic leap with this deeply affecting, funny and original peek at one confused youth's coming out process. Full Review
Film Journal International

Rating: 8 -- Essentially a play and two films within a film, Blackbird from writer and director Patrik-Ian Polk cleverly combines race, sexuality, religion and small town values. Full Review

Rating: 2/4 -- A gospel-driven cross of Precious and Rent, only set in a sleepy Southern town that time forgot instead of New York City. Full Review

Apr 22, 2015
Rating: 2/4 -- Director Patrik-Ian Polk makes the ending a little too pat, but he makes us root for these characters to be happy, and for their world to be a better place. Full Review
