    The film fell far short of my expectations: Herzog seemed neutral, but in fact hides too much attitude in the questions; the choice of interviewees is very strange, and they can only provide feelings, no ability to use reason. As a result, for someone like me who is temporarily neutral on the death penalty, the documentary was only...

    It does not talk about how fearful and repentant the death row inmates are before they are executed, but focuses more on the consequences of a tragedy. A stupid and wrong choice made by two teenagers ten years ago caused several families to be broken, and the victim's family suffered mental torture for many years. . That father spent his entire life in prison, and his son followed in his footsteps and lived a hopeless life, which was more tragic than the death penalty. The dash on the tombstone...

    This is a documentary pondering the weight of the death penalty, and Herzog presents every aspect of (a) death penalty through interviews with the people involved. Regarding the abolition of the death penalty, I once thought it was imperative, but after watching the film, I felt that this should be a matter of reprieve-or, even if the death penalty was abolished, it should also be conditional and...

    The topics are old, but the stories of death row inmates can always be unbelievable. Herzog interviewed and filmed from the perspective of abolition of the death penalty, but the end result makes people feel: If the death penalty can't stop these people from committing crimes, why should they have the right to live? No one in this society is highly conscious enough to know that they shouldn't kill people just by being imprisoned for life. In this story, the reason they killed the three was just...

    To outsiders, a murder case only means numbers, curiosity and a brief description of the process. And Herzog's insider's story in the movie is weaving a big net that makes it difficult for people to...

    This film reminds me of Errel Morris' The thin blue line, only Herzog wants to ask different questions. Using the usual method of subsection, a film that questioned the death penalty was made so sci-fi. Channel 4 has cut from this film into a "Death Row" series, making a good film to...

  • Fred Allen: Hold still and watch the birds. Once you get up into your life like that, and once you feel good about your life, you do start watching what the birds do. What the doves are doing. Like the hummingbirds. Why are there so many of them.
