BRUTAL BEAUTY
DIRECTOR: CHIP MABRY / PORTLAND — ARTIST IN ATTENDANCE
US 2009
"Forget Drew Barrymore's recent foray into roller derby: Chip Mabry's BRUTAL BEAUTY gives an honest shot of girl-powered adrenaline in his documentary on Portland's own Rose City Rollers. Stakes are raised when their all-star team goes on the road to face off against Bay Area and Denver opponents. Without the contrived personalities or plotlines of WHIP IT, Mabry's tattooed and bruised chicks are entertainment enough, and with the help of Voodoo doughnuts to explain the derby rules, there's no way a Portlander won't feel a rousing sense of pride as they gear up for the Rollers' upcoming season."—Ali Rothschild, Willamette Week. (80 mins.)
The audience is invited to join Bitch Media, Portland's Rose City Rollers, and the Northwest Film Center for no host drinks and snacks after the screening at Momo's Bar (725 Southwest 10th Avenue).
