“Full disclosure: after watching it three times, I’d go so far as to call it a short film masterpiece […] Stop is a quiet tour-de-force, a pent up cry for humanity and fairness in a system that feeds off its own worst instincts.” -Mike Tully, Hammer to Nail (http://bit.ly/1x8dBmV) “Reinaldo Marcus Green’s gripping nine-minute drama, shot in two nights on location in Red Hook, Brooklyn, centers around a student athlete who is stopped by the police for no other reason than the color of his skin. Displaying real filmmaking finesse, ‘Stop’ is a timely tale well told.” –Kim Adelman, indieWIRE (http://bit.ly/1sV4M3x) “A riveting, tension-filled short that studies the uncomfortable details apparent in racial profiling.” –Erik Luers, indieWIRE (http://bit.ly/1wpwwZg) “Probably one of the most important and timely shorts for America this year. Reinaldo Marcus Green’s film addresses the upsetting aspects of New York City’s stop-and-frisk policies with sensitivity and insight.” -Jeff Bowers, VICE (bit.ly/1mU7HHQ) “The film packs a lot in nine minutes with its timely topic and subtle hand.” –Maddy Kadish, Independent (http://bit.ly/1w5EdKr) “References to slain teen Trayvon Martin and the recent racially charged events of Ferguson and New York City surfaced in direct and subtle ways throughout the festival, but the most powerful was NYU student Reinaldo Marcus Green’s nine-minute short Stop” –Julie Bramowitz, VOGUE (http://bit.ly/2oZQRvo) “Reinaldo Marcus Green On Going From Working At Chuck E. Cheese To Playing His Film At Tribeca” –Mary Angelica Molina, REMEZCLA (http://bit.ly/1HwNqOX) “Gripping Take on the NYPD’s Stop-and-Frisk Policy.
