Edith dreams of being a successful actress, but cannot land any roles. When she can't figure out what she is doing wrong, she starts to mess everything up.

Ben Kenigsberg

New York Times

Ms. Goldstein gives a performance that requires her to swing between disarming and loathsome. She demonstrates impressive skill in slowly peeling away her character's charm.

Slant Magazine

Throughout, Pavan Moondi and Brian Robertson purposely indulge Hollywood formula only to subvert it.

Rated: 3/4 •

The Hollywood Reporter

That she nonetheless emerges as all too relatable is a credit to Moondi's astute screenplay and the nerve-rattling performance by its lead performer, here making an auspicious acting debut.

The Playlist

Diamond Tongues is refreshing because it isn't an indictment of a demographic, or even of Edith, but is a portrait of a young woman whose ambition has curdled into something more nasty along the way.

Rated: B+ •

David Berry

National Post

The second feature by Pavan Moondi and Brian Robertson, Diamond Tongues lives in its careful attention to detail, the meticulous but breezy way it captures Edith's meandering life as much as her increasingly destructive disenchantment.

Rated: 3/4 •

Norman Wilner

NOW Toronto

Diamond Tongues works both as a character study and an exercise in cringe comedy: you spend an hour and a half watching someone make a lot of bad choices, hoping that she'll learn from at least one of them.

Rated: 4/5 •

Gabriel C

This is a hidden gem and a great reminder of what it is to be in your twenties before life has given you a direction. I remember so many aspiring artists when I was that age and it reminded me of so many mistakes and dead ends that most of us experience.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

"Diamond Tongues" is honest personal crisis set against the backdrop of the clash between what audiences want in art and what art ought to be. Goldstein is great in this film.
