The pioneer director of this type of documentary skillfully makes the audience also become a participant to re-examine the case from beginning to end. Does the director really have no point of view? It is not in the tape at the end that he has fully demonstrated his point of view. It has nothing to do with individuals about the system Nothing to do with the truth about who is better suited to be a criminal than to find out the real...

This documentary is more calm and calm, through the description and comments of people of different identities about a case of shooting a policeman to death ten years ago, showing that the eagerness to close the case and financial interests are the direct reasons for the wrong judgment. Those who are still alive have a chance to be reborn, but what if they are dead? Anyone who can make a decision on a case has the right to life and death.

Simple incidents are handled roughly, leaving a bloody chaotic scene. History will remember this farce, but the curse will continue. Thirty years later, Robert Durst's escape from trial by jury and perjury is the best proof. There is no justice in the courts, people with conscience please continue to work...

One of the examplary documentaries to show the "creative treatment of reality" by using reenactments, smart editing, and cohesive persuasive arguments. The social influence of the narrative shows the power of storytelling: this film was instrumental in the exoneration of...

From the perspective of documentary filming and production, it may not be considered a great work, but from the perspective of the social function of the documentary, this film is an epoch-making work—because a documentary has changed a person’s destiny, it’s also right. The US legal system has raised questions that have echoed so far. Compared with the artistic value of documentary creation, the social significance of documentary creation differs from person to person and from film to...
