Reviews & Quotes | KEEP THE CAMERAS ROLLING: THE PEDRO ZAMORA WAY
Bay Area Reporter | Brian Bromberger, Reporter
"The terrific documentary "Keep the Cameras Rolling: The Pedro Zamora Way" charts how the charismatic and articulate HIV-positive Cuban-American Zamora with movie star looks, wound up a star on MTV's 1992 "The Real World (the first reality TV show). He educated viewers about living with HIV, then as one of TV's few openly gay people, married his boyfriend in the first televised gay wedding, decades before it became legal. Roommate Judd Winick and housemate Pam Ling later married, becoming HIV activists and preserving Pedro's legacy with their heartbreaking reminiscences. The documentary brings the affable, impassioned, brave Pedro back to life, helping us understand why he deserves to be remembered and cherished, after his 1994 death at age 22, hours after "Real World's" final episode aired."
