Pressure Cooker

The movie's sense of inspiration is realistic. It never implies a future of glamour, only hard-won success.

An earnest crowd-pleaser that could have used an extra helping of dramatic tension -- but it succeeds by placing us in an interesting world with characters who are impossible not to root for.

Wilma Stephenson...definitely deserves a subtler cinematic testament than this lazily inspirational documentary.

Receiving a special commendation for Best Documentary at LAFF, I knew it was only a matter of time before things would get cooking for this little gem.
