Roll Red Roll is an intense, provocative look at modern iterations of rape culture, and how becoming the home of an incredibly high-profile crime can reshape a town forever. Go to Full Review
Peter Rainer FilmWeek (LAist) Sep 27, 2019
It's a very powerful movie. One of the things it demonstrates is how, in our digital age, there's a trail of incrimination that exists that didn't before. Go to Full Review
Robert Abele Los Angeles Times Apr 3, 2019
Schwartzman's careful narrative derives its power not just from the archived depravity that gave prosecutors plenty of evidence... but the troubling inquiry - with no simple answers - at the heart of the case. Go to Full Review

Roll Red Roll should be mandatory viewing for every teenager, parent and educator in America. Go to Full Review

Roll Red Roll documents the chilling details of rape culture at work. Here's hoping that sharing the story of Steubenville with the world helps shut it down for good. Go to Full Review

Apr 2, 2019 This documentary is a much watch for parents, teens, and anyone who wants to learn what is happening to our teens. It is hard to watch. Some parts are forever etched in my brain. That is why it is necessary. We must educate ourselves with the truth. We must do the hard things required to protect our kids. You don't get to stick your head in the sand, without a consequence, kids lives are at-risk. See more
Albus M Mar 18, 2019 A documentary that should be shown in schools to throw it in the face of kids as to what bad behaviour can look like and how it can escalate into rape through objectification of women. As a documentary though, this is poor, so many gaps in the narrative, elements rushed, key individuals are not covered, the film ends abruptly, there's no conclusions drawn, it's just a horrible mess of a film but it has a strong overarching message to kids through the content.

Albus G Feb 8, 2019 Horrible doc, lots of fake news.
Draco L Oct 24, 2018 Movie doesn't refer to facts of the case.
