Loved the movie but kinda hard to watch.

Rosewood on its own as a movie experience, it's pretty enjoyable. It is kinda hard to watch and you might feel bummed out watching the movie like me but there is great story telling going on. It gets very suspenseful around the middle of the movie and stayed that til the very end. The set design was great, the building and the environment was authentic and the costumes was on point and it felt like I was in this movie for a little bit or went back in time. This movie is based on a true story and the towns are still there today. I wanna say I can't believe these events happened but at the same time I definitely can believe these events happened just watching it.
