Capturing the Friedmans = great documentary.
It doesn’t give any answers. How can it? The memories of those involved are so contradictory and their testimonies so sincere and certain. It assumes enough intelligence on the part of the audience to be able to search for their own conclusions and opinions.
If possible, make time for the extras dvd; it added a great deal to the experience for me at least. Especially the Q&A at the premiere; where the people involved spoke about their perceptions of the movie and their own experiences.
Excellent piece of work.
See more progress on: make a list of 100 movies I want to see this year and see them.
