Redacted

Wow!

Brian Da Palma sure knows how to make a movie. A very interesting format was used for this since the funding came with the stipulation that the film be made in high-definition video.

Security cameras, home movies, and YouTube videos are used to tell the story. Another one that looks more like a docu-drama than a straight film.

Powerful story, powerful acting, unforgettable scenes. (Based on a true story?)
