"What a heartfelt film" - Ed Asner, Legendary Emmy - Winning Actor
"I have senior parents, and Lord knows what the future holds. I appreciate Hoversten’s story because it is a reminder to cherish the moments I have now with my parents. For those in the midst of caring for one with Alzheimer’s, Mother’s Day Memories is here to say you’re not alone and your feelings of guilt, frustration, and helplessness are normal. It’s a definite recommendation and must-see for anyone stepping into or far down the path of the world of Alzheimer’s." - Alan Ng, Managing Editor, Film Threat
"Mother's Day Memories" is poignant ... raises awareness of a disease that is affecting so many of our family and loved ones." - Glynn Turman, Emmy-Winning Actor, Producer & Director
“Makes the case for understanding and empathy toward those struggling with Alzheimer's." – Alzheimer's Los Angeles
"Intimacy in the language, the silent moments, even the body language ... Jaress is poignant and vulnerable ... Hoversten serves up a disciplined performance that never hits a false note ... Conrad Bachmann strongly captures the struggles of a spouse to accept the changing dynamics of his marriage and family ... Kat Kramer captures a delicate balance as John's supportive yet at times challenging wife ... Lensing by Keith Jefferies is effective ... Dorothy Amos's costume design feels honest and realistic." - The Independent Critic
"The power of film to illuminate and educate ... shines throughout ... the tight ensemble cast hits all the right notes ... a message that speaks to the heart of its audience ... 'Mother’s Day Memories' engages us completely and is gone too soon." - Vernon Nickerson, The Art of Monteque (a California Arts Council Featured Organization)
"Well made and earnest, this is a good little film that painfully illustrates how various family members deal with a loved one's deterioration" - Steve Kopian, Unseen Films

"A very compelling and touching short film. Very realistic and convincing. The actors were all amazing. I definitely recommend this movie. Tissues required." -Robert D’Alessio, Host of Rob’s Inner Circle podcast.
"Truly hits home for most living with Dementia, Alzheimer's or even now, Covid short term memory loss and neurological disorder. It really is a family affair and MOTHER'S DAY MEMORIES reveals this through the compassion of a son's heart and a father's frustration and love for his wife. The family secret revealed by a split second flash is a compelling twist. Do I smell sequel?" - Jenny DuHaime, Producer, Rob's Inner Circle
"A very heart-warming tale ... weaves (the mother's Alzheimer's) into the story in a very subtle way ... a quite touching story ... thanks to a first rate cast, and a directorial effort that give[s] the actors the necessary space to breathe ... will probably drive the audience to shed a few tears." - Mike Haberfelner, Searchmytrash.com
