DOCNYC: Join Lindsey Lindenbaum at the 2020 edition of the DOC NYC PRO conference, taking place August 5-October 21
Women in Hollywood: Shot over a five-year period in a nuanced, cinematic style, “Tomboy” tells the story of four women drummers, making their mark in a stereotypically masculine field.
These are the badass chicks of the past, present and future, leading by example, and Tomboy is the perfect paean in their honor.
Variety: Tomboy filmmaker Lindsay Lindenbaum is keen to remind people that there are many female stories out there … you just have to look.
The Hollywood Outsider: “You care about these women and their paths.”
Disappointment Media: "Lindenbaum is able to create a film that is a passionate love letter to music and creativity."
Blog Critics: "She paints a rich portrait of the role of women in the music business."
Red Carpet Crash: Lindenbaum's ability to edit a present and compelling story of art, family, dreams achieved and dashed, from years of new film plus all the archival footage, was no small feat.
Daily Grind House: Like the best music, it’s as heartbreaking as it is affirming.
Moveable Fest: The rock and rock spirit is what shines through in “Tomboy,” as distinctive and singular formally as any of the women it follows.
Hollywood Reporter: TOMBOY "Being a woman drummer shouldn't be anything unusual."
Film Threat: "Tomboy is bound to entertain, enlighten, and perhaps bring a tear or two to your eye."
Statesman: Director Lindsay Lindenbaum spent five years with the musicians, who have at least 60 years experience between them.
