For the Birds Ratings & Reviews
Battleship Pretension
Craig Schroeder
For the Birds often has trouble finding the balance between human interest and exploitation.
Movies For The Rest Of Us
Bill Newcott
Moments..are almost unbearably sad...Yet, somehow, the film ends on a note of hope that...she can sustain a happy medium between bird lover and bird hoarder.
Los Angeles Times
Kimber Myers
While the documentary evolves in its scope, Miron's feature debut always remains evenhanded. "For the Birds" is kind to its subject, while recognizing the harm she's inadvertently doing.
The Pop Break
Marisa Carpico
[Morphs] from a dark picture of untreated mental illness and a crumbling marriage to something more meaningful: a picture of one woman slowly taking her life back.
Aisle Seat
Mike McGranaghan
Extraordinary! A very humane documentary.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
A compassionate, fair and balanced documentary portrait.
New York Times
Teo Bugbee
Miron avoids easy conclusions about what drives Kathy, and he stays with her long enough for her story to surprise.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
[For the Birds] is an intimate portrait which invites viewers to engage with someone they might otherwise avoid and acknowledge as she must that love and care are not always the same thing.
Shockya.com
Harvey S. Karten
This doc will evoke long discussions about the mental state of this champion protector of birds. Is she a hoarder, or a saint?
Paste Magazine
Amy Glynn
For the Birds is admittedly not groundbreaking. But it illuminates something we might not think about very much, which is what is actually going on in the mind of a hoarder, and how the pathology of such a person ramifies on other people.
Moveable Fest
Stephen Saito
The film marks one of those exciting moments when you realize that for as an unbelievable true story unfolds before your eyes, it's as remarkable, if not more so, that the right film crew was around to do it justice.
Hammer to Nail
Christopher Llewellyn Reed
I particularly loved how Miron, whose first feature this is, surprises us time and again with new plot developments.
