Some Praise for Cookies & Cream:

"Honest and absorbing...Its a great example of what tiny budget cinema can - and should - do."
- Michael Tully - HammertoNail.com

"Cookies & Cream pulls off a rare feat as it deftly tells the story of an independent woman making her own way in a career that creates its own set of obstacles."
- Ron Moore - TheExaminer.com

"A strikingly visual film, full of fantastic performances from everyone in the cast, and a magnificent musical score. It stays in your mind well after seeing it because it offers a vantage point not often shown in cinema."
- RogueCinema.com

"This sort of character study is quite difficult to achieve and its a testament to both the writing and the acting that the film accomplishes so much. Cookies & Cream does more than any other film Ive seen to humanize the people working in the adult entertainment industry."
