When buck & roll fails: breaking free when your legs are pinned?

I've seen so many self defense videos detailing the buck & roll technique for how to break free when someone is on top of you. But they're always contingent on your legs being completely free while the attacker has their weight on your stomach &/or arms.

If the attacker were to sit on/pin your legs while going for your upper body & head, how would you break free? Pitching them forward by thrusting your pelvis is completely out of the question.

I was watching a true crime documentary about Jesse Leroy Matthew, & he was able to subdue his victims by knocking them to the ground & sitting on their legs while slamming their heads into the ground. It got me thinking about how to break out of that situation & I wasn't able to find anything.

Come to think of it, it seems that technique would also fail if your attacker put their weight on your chest instead of your stomach. So any thoughts or resources on what to do if someone is on top of you, & has you pinned in such a way that the buck & roll would fail, would be very much appreciated.

Thanks so much for reading. (:
