	Media	Author	Review
		Caryn James The Hollywood Reporter	"Solid and valuable but familiar (...) 'Reversing Roe' offers no more than a succinct overview."
		Ben Kenigsberg The New York Times	"[It] provides a clear and accessible overview of more than 50 years of the social and legal history of [abortion] in the United States."
		David Ehrlich IndieWire	"'Reversing Roe' is a productive contribution to its ever-growing genre because it sharply dissects the process by which abortion soured from a private medical issue to a public political one"
		Brian Lowry CNN	"While the documentary sheds welcome light on Roe's history (...) the filmmakers, perhaps inevitably, bypassed some key stops and turns along the way."
