Tricia Russo's chronicle of her determination to have a child while battling metastatic breast cancer won the audience award for best documentary at the Bentonville Film Festival, where it premiered. It's easy to see why. The response to Love Always, Mom couldn't have been for its filmmaking, which is competent and conventional, more personal diary than cinema. But Russo makes a vivid, understated onscreen heroine as she takes viewers through her intense journey over several years. The emotional connection she establishes through the camera almost makes up for the film's low-tech quality and frustrating lack of context.
