Disclosure Ratings & Reviews
indieWire
Jude Dry
In making the film, Feder and Cox are rewriting the very history they set out to tell, adding one more title to "positive representation" list. That alone is worth coming out for.
RogerEbert.com
Nick Allen
Disclosure makes clear that the conversation about transgender representation is only just beginning, but it offers an incredibly thoughtful opportunity to make more people aware.
San Francisco Chronicle
Bob Strauss
"Disclosure" does an admirable job of covering many issues and contradictions a century of mostly insensitive screen depictions have raised.
Bitch Media
Niko Stratis
Disclosure is a noteworthy watch considering the way that films prior have represented trans people.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Tim Cogshell
Elucidating regarding many things relative to the transgender folk.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Christy Lemire
It makes you go back and revisit movies and TV shows through a totally different prism.
Variety
Peter Debruge
[An] essential, thoroughly engaging documentary...
New York Times
Teo Bugbee
The passion and knowledge of the speakers lend force to this familiar - even generic - format.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
It's a nuanced look at media's ability to influence the conversation -- to move the needle in terms of public perception -- as well as its limits.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
"Disclosure," takes an engrossing, smartly contextual look at the history of transgender depictions in film and television.
Salon.com
Melanie McFarland
With absolute precision Disclosure makes the case that the all-too-common portrayals of transgender characters on TV over the years have contributed to this epidemic through the reckless objectification of transgender people.
Autostraddle
Drew Gregory
Disclosure is vital whether it's the beginning of your education or a supplement along the way. It's a reminder of what representation can do and what representation can be. It is itself a work of trans cinema.
Xtra Magazine
Tre'vell Anderson
It's necessary viewing, for trans and cis folk alike-and not just because I'm in it, too!
The Hollywood Reporter
Beandrea July
A thoughtfully crafted film that puts underheard voices first.
The Curvy Film Critic
Carla Renata
Like anyone considered "other" or "different," the Trans community has not been without it challenges. Thank Goodness Sam Feder has broken down the prejudices of the Trans image in media. Educational. Enlightening. Necessary
Common Sense Media
Barbara Shulgasser
Docu frankly depicts trans struggles; language, nudity.
The Film Stage
Josh Encinias
I imagine the young people it will help, both trans and gay, and the mistakes the filmmaker made doesn't seem as detrimental.
Fresh Fiction
Courtney Howard
While it's heavily loaded with information, its sentiments are passionate, adding much-needed educational context to a difficult conversation society seems to want to shirk.
Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
Philip Martin
Everyone who is interested in film history will likely enjoy this engaging and surprisingly balanced work.
ArtsATL
Steve Murray
Disclosure presents a breezy but pretty thorough overview of the entertainment media's longtime dismissive portrayal of gender otherness...
