Superbly Crafted
A superbly crafted documentary. Extraordinary and thoughtful with a clarity that could not be more timely.

Highly Compelling
Filmmaker Joel Gilbert has done it again. His latest film, “Roseanne Barr is America” tells how a homely Jewish red diaper baby became a controversial, highly paid American celebrity and Trump supporting patriot. Rosanne herself tells the bitter-sweet and sometimes amusing tale of her life including the Obama sponsored assault that resulted in her highly rated TV show being canceled following outrageous charges of racism. Beneath her rough, often profane exterior, is an all-American girl who believes deeply in the American dream for all Americans. Touching in its own way. Highly compelling.

Roseanne Barr is America
In Joel Gilbert's perfectly titled film, Roseanne Barr is America, Gilbert unobtrusively allows Roseanne Barr to tell her incredible life story, the lows and highs, the successes and the betrayals, and finally her awakening. After watching it, I wanted to watch it again. Roseanne Barr is America.
