There's more than enough story to tell here, maybe too much for just one film, no matter how well-meaning it may be. Go to Full Review

Audrie & Daisy is a stark portrait of a problem which is not in any way local, aberrant, or random. The problem is systemic. Go to Full Review

What the documentary does well ... is critique a culture that allows young men to disregard other people's humanity. Go to Full Review

Cohen and Shenk refuse to allow the audience to sit in ignorance, not only revealing the horrid heart of a backwards societal view of rape but allowing that idiocy to speak for itself. Go to Full Review

This isn't just a doc that should be shown in schools, it should be required viewing for anyone with a pulse who lives in the 21st Century. Go to Full Review

Audrie & Daisy is ultimately an extremely affecting film that does a better job of examining rape culture than Kirby Dick's The Hunting Ground from last year. Go to Full Review

@c0urtn3y 01/15/2022 very good documentary piece; it's absolutely heartbreaking. luckily i have never been in this situation but it makes me scared to be a mother someday. i was absolutely appalled by the sheriff, amongst others. including the boys that were interviewed. See more heather l 08/26/2020 This series is tragic and highlights the incompetence of both law enforcement and the justice system in the United States/ California and Missouri. How a states attorney did not review and take over this case is just outrageous. Emotionally this series outlines the tragic consequences of the families of these girls the impact of one girl Audrie whom commits suicide 9 days after she is raped and Daisy who committed suicide 22 days ago and whom not only suffered her father's death but her brothers death in 2018. The parents of these children are hero's particularly Daisy's mother her house was burn'd down and she looses her job. Audrie's parents sued the boys whom raped their daughter and this film was documented. This film should be shown to every grade nine boy and girl in North America clearly boys are not being taught integrity empathy and respect and honesty. See more 08/10/2020 Este documental nos muestra la dura realidad que muchas adolescentes sufren en el mundo actual. See more 08/07/2020 Devastatingly sad and very well done. I must watch for every human being. And also the psychos out there See more steve j 08/07/2020 How could anyone not give this movie 5 stars? It's a real problem in many societies and how bullying, rape, and sexual assault can ruin kids' lives. IMO, this is essential...and every young person should be required to watch it. Also, not really a focus of the movie: the dangers of alcohol. See more 12/17/2019 Wow my heart really goes out to the females who have been victims. The bullshit the victims have to endure (ie the fucking sheriff questioning that Daisy is a victim and even going so far as suggesting that she is a guilty party) in small towns is insane imo. How does a man that ignorant get to hold a position of authority like sheriff. The only positive I take from this is knowing karma is a BITCH and all of these guys will have to pay their bill eventually. Even the scum that go out of their way to blame the victim... karma's a bitch. I'm do glad I saw this as I can now help the effort to stop this. See more Read all reviews
