A Letter to True Ratings & Reviews
Miami Herald
Rene Rodriguez
If you don't have a dog waiting for you at home after seeing A Letter to True, you'll want one.
South Florida Sun-Sentinel
Phoebe Flowers
[A] lovely, evocative documentary.
Los Angeles Daily News
Evan Henerson
Weber is a sly raconteur with great names to drop, and his doggie footage is a kick.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Crust
What at first glance seem like random episodes involving animals are actually lyrical impressions connected by the idea of unconditional love.
St. Paul Pioneer Press
Chris Hewitt
Like a blog, True is a rambling discourse into the heart and mind of its creator, a series of disassociated musings that aren't intended for a wide audience.
L.A. Weekly
Chuck Wilson
While Weber's voice-over throughout the film often strains for profundity on subjects such as 9/11 and the Iraq War, he's concise and on point in relating Bogarde and Forwood's love story.
Boxoffice Magazine
Susan Green
More a quasi-autobiographical meditation than a conventional documentary, A Letter to True continues Bruce Weber's scrapbook approach to cinema.
Reeling Reviews
Robin Clifford
...the disjointed nature of the work [of A Letter to True] kept me from embracing it.
San Francisco Chronicle
Jonathan Curiel
A collage of everything that's important to Weber. But what's important to a rich, successful photographer/filmmaker with time and money on his hands is not necessarily important to anyone else.
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
Eventually, Weber's theme is recognizable, but never cogent...animal lovers looking for a canine paean will find small nuggets to savor
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Even dog lovers, who will no doubt be entranced by the undeniable charms of Weber's frisky menagerie of pooches, will ultimately wish that he had extended his efforts on a coffee-table photography book rather than this confused cinematic tone poem.
Variety
Leslie Felperin
A richly textured collage held together by free association, a pic that's pleasing to look at, but never forms a coherent picture.
Film Journal International
David Noh
Pretty pictures, indeed, and highly diverting, but the spoken text which accompanies them is oftimes troublingly glib.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
About as exciting as watching someone else's home movies -- albeit, beautifully photographed ones.
New York Daily News
Jami Bernard
It's a colorful collage with a few choice tidbits amid run-of-the-mill kibble.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Haunting internal dialogue between grown-up longing for a return to innocence and a child's yearning for its loss.
Village Voice
Ed Halter
A corny hodgepodge of gooey sentiment mixed with half-baked mush and strained pieties.
Newsday
John Anderson
A sublime simplicity lies at the heart of A Letter to True, Bruce Weber's combination cinematographic poem and paean to canine worship.
