★★★★ Capturing the Friedmans

[Twinkletoes: 4.0, Tiny: 3.5]

Twinkletoes says: "This is a pretty infuriating film in that when its over I still had no idea what to think. But that's the point I think, and in that sense it's very successful. If you see this on DVD, the bonus disc is very good as well. It's about this case from the late 80's where a father and son were accused of sexually molesting countless students in a computer course the father taught in the family house. After watching it and some of the extra features, my conclusion is that the father was guilty of some crimes but not these crimes and that the son was innocent of these crimes but I'd really like to hear what others think."

Tiny says: "Incredible, just incredible, that this creepy family kept home movies of their own disintegration. I agree with Twinkletoes' evaluation of the guilt and innocence of those involved. Tragic story, regardless."
