Critic Reviews

Lou Lumenick

In monotonous narration, Rosette rants that the vendors' right to free speech should allow them to obstruct sidewalks, but the portrait of his subculture is so vaguely rendered, it will likely put audiences to sleep rather than change minds. Read full review

TV Guide Magazine Steven Miller

Rosette's film takes on a seriously Orwellian cast when the sellers mobilize to wage a civil war of words against the Big Brotherly NYC bureaucrats and academics trying to sweep them off the street. Read full review

Michael Atkinson

A.O. Scott

The movie is like spending an idle afternoon browsing, and not buying. Read full review
