Okay, this is not really a horror documentary. At the same time, when you think about being
sent to prison for a crime you didn’t do, it’s a very scary ordeal. This film pretty much debunks the idea that
Amanda Knox is a killer. Yet it
demonstrates how the media and the Italian officials crafted a narrative that she and her boyfriend (at the time) killed her roommate. It’s sad that two people in love had to have
their lives stalled over faulty evidence and fabricated stories. There is no doubt that the murder of Meredith
Kercher was a horrible tragedy. To make
it ever worse the police poorly investigated the crime and went after the wrong
people. Grade: B+
My Grading System
A+ = Masterpiece (I hold back on this one.) / A = Great. / A- = Really Good. / B+ = Good. / B = Decent (Serviceable). / B- = Flawed but okay (For those times there's something redeeming about the work). / C+ = Not very good (Skip it). C = Bad. / C- = Awful. / F = Complete Disaster (I hold back on this one too).
Note on Spoilers: I will try to avoid ruining a story by going into too much detail. But if I wish to include some revealing points to my analysis I will try to remember to add a separate spoiler paragraph.
