Not exactly the kind of art the film talks about, but the concept is sound. It builds the image out of newspaper articles covering the affair.

• Trailer: A-

Review:

Documentaries don't normally appeal to me. I find many of them to be historically interesting, but dreadfully executed. This one not only seems interesting, but it looks like a well-crafted film.

Oscar Prospects:

This is a sure contender for the Oscars.

Release Date:
