Wikipedia article




'Rolling Papers' is a 2015 documentary film directed by Mitch Dickman and featuring Ricardo Baca. The "deceptively rote title" is said to be a winking reference to Baca's work as a newspaper writer.

Reception



'The Guardian' gave the documentary three out of five stars. Neil Genzlinger of 'The New York Times' wrote: "The film... has a maddeningly short attention span, delving just far enough into one subject to whet your appetite before flitting on to the next. That approach extends to a secondary theme: whether the pot beat is just a gimmick, a desperate effort to attract attention and readers. That possibility is raised but never really examined... So the two most likely audiences for this documentary people interested in marijuana and people interested in the news business will probably find it shallower than theyd hoped. It's full of discussion points but lets them go by undiscussed."
