The New York Times
Farmingville ...should become required viewing for every decision-maker and local official in the State of New York.”
Newsday editorial

— Noel Holston, Newsday
It may well be the most important film to debut at the Sundance Film Festival. The film is Farmingville, a hard-hitting documentary about the impact of illegal aliens on one small New York community. ...It is an absolutely terrific documentary on a complex, difficult subject. ...and allows us to get to know all sides of this dispute.”
— Lou Dobbs, Lou Dobbs Tonight, CNN
