	Author	Review
United States	Andy Webster The New York Times	"Pushy, judgmental, tart-tongued and self-obsessed, the photographer at the heart of Otis Mass’s penetrating documentary (...) is, like her snapshots, a piece of work."	POS
United States	Frank Scheck The Hollywood Reporter	"Needed more developing (...) [An] irascible and not particularly interesting subject (...) The film tells you more than you probably wanted to know about Hartman"	NEU
United States	Jessi Cape Austin Chronicle	"This colorful archive of 40 years of unprecedented access to backstage fashion shows and over-the-top nightlife is as charming and as full of life as the subject herself."	POS
United States	Daphne Howland Village Voice	"A gorgeously shot, sharply edited portrait of photographer Hartman (...) Otis Mass is sometimes affectionate and sometimes combative as he draws out the real Rose"	POS
United States	Elizabeth Weitzman The Wrap	"It is fair to say that her breezy biography (...) falls a little short. But if you share Hartman’s trifecta of obsessions — photography, fashion and fame — you’ll find plenty to appreciate."	NEU
