Keep the River on Your Right: A Modern Cannibal Tale Ratings & Reviews
Dallas Morning News
Gary Dowell
A fascinating if somewhat unfocused documentary.
Houston Chronicle
Louis B. Parks
Schneebaum, a dull and helpless-looking nonentity at first glance, proves to be an amazingly courageous, inquisitive, remarkable man.
Boston Globe
There's no denying the warmth of Schneebaum's encounters, or his engaging nature. Or the fact that you've never seen a documentary quite like this one, and aren't likely to again.
San Jose Mercury News
Glenn Lovell
Makes for fascinating, compelling viewing.
San Francisco Chronicle
Edward Guthmann
What begins as a curious document, then, evolves into something more.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Desmond Ryan
An extraordinarily absorbing documentary.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Unfortunately bitten off more than it can chew.
The New Republic
Stanley Kauffmann
A documentary that understands the uniqueness of the man who is their subject without patronizing or exploiting him.
New York Times
Lawrence Van Gelder
An engaging and colorful but somewhat overbalanced documentary.
Washington Post
Eve Zibart
Provides a fascinating glimpse of how the human spirit struggles with, shades, rationalizes and finally accepts the shocks of unfamiliar and unpleasant reality.
Washington Post
Stephen Hunter
What's brilliant about the film is that it doesn't quite buy its hero's somewhat self-serving account.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
The Shapiros wisely focus on the mystery of this man.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
It's worth seeing simply to make the acquaintance of Tobias, a really extraordinary old guy.
Seattle Times
John Zebrowski
Rather than observe events as they happen, the filmmakers force things, manipulating Schneebaum and the audience to serve their agenda.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Meanders, dawdles, doubles back on itself but finally gets us somewhere fascinating and worthwhile.
Film.com
Ernest Hardy
As [Schneebaum] explains the male-male relationships and the absence of stigma or judgment, the film soars.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Uses a single notorious incident to liven up an otherwise less-than-riveting story.
Village Voice
Amy Taubin
Schneebaum is a great subject; the film doesn't quite make the most of him.
