Leave your thoughts about First Girl I Loved.
| The Age (Australia)Craig MathiesonThe film's title is love-struck, but this is a deceptively wrenching story of self-discovery and honesty. |
| We Live EntertainmentScott MenzelI pretty much adored everything about First Girl I Loved. |
| Consequence of SoundJustin GerberWhat writer and director Kerem Sanga captures so well in First Girl I Loved is high school. What he captures even better is falling in love, or the naïve idea of what it means to be in love as a teenager. |
| FILMINK (Australia)Chelsea WickKerem Sanga's teen romantic drama, First Girl I Loved is a beautiful portrayal of the joys but especially the fears that come with love when it takes an unconventional form. |
| The PlaylistKatie WalshSanga’s roundabout storytelling and sensitive exploration of contemporary issues around sexual identity and consent makes First Girl I Loved a sophisticated and complex teenage coming of age story. It’s Gelula’s performance that brings the emotional weight necessary to drive the story forward. |
| Georgia StraightAdrian MackDirector Kerem Sanga's gift for quantum observation is one thing, but it's the performances that make this Sundance audience favourite really sing. |
| Matt's Movie ReviewsMatthew PejkovicSanga deals with themes of identity, sexuality, and the role that technology plays in modern day courtship, with an innovative and sensitive spirit. |
| Hammer to NailJessica BaxterTo anyone who remembers his or her first heartbreak, First Girl I Loved will ring true. |
| IndiewireDavid EhrlichOne of the most compelling things about Karem Sanga’s raw and emotionally radiant First Girl I Loved is how well it captures the heart-pounding terror of becoming someone, the one-way nausea of committing to yourself. |
| Salt Lake City WeeklyScott RenshawIt's always satisfying when a movie allows teenage characters to behave like real teenagers. |
