About
Capturing the Friedmans

Essentially what a good documentary should be: The exploration of a film maker within the subject and build of narrative as he/she sees it. Jarecki clearly had a judgement on the case, and he makes this quite clear at times, however there's a brilliant ambiguity to the film that shows the 'chinese whisper' essence of human beings. I know if I watched it 10 times I'd have a new opinion each time. Absolutely brilliant.
