Capturing the Friedmans

Andrew Jarecki, 2003 (8.2*)
This is an eerie documentary about suspected child molesters, named the Friedmans, a family that ran a daycare center in their home. Director Jarecki looks at the case from all sides and interviews the suspects, but never really makes a judgment himself, he leaves that up to the film audience as if we are members of the jury ourselves. This is a very creepy film about a very sensitive subject, so it definitely won't be for all audiences, but it is a riveting documentary and one well worth seeing.

These are the individual film reviews of what I'm considering the best 1000 dvds available, whether they are films, miniseries, or live concerts. Rather than rush out all 1000 at once, I'm doing them over time to allow inclusion of new releases - in fact, 2008 has the most of any year so far, 30 titles in all; that was a very good year for films, one of the best ever.
