The Facebook Obsession (2011)


"The Facebook Obsession is the real story behind the rise of the largest social-media site in the world, told through the company's founders, friends and foes. Correspondent Lester Holt delivers a comprehensive look at how this Internet phenomenon, with half a billion users, is affecting society in ways most people are unaware of.

From a girl who is reunited with her birth mother with the help of Facebook, to a woman who lost her job because of her online postings, "The Facebook Obsession" examines how the site is fundamentally altering American life for better or worse; even the White House and many police departments have their own Facebook pages. Holt explores the intense privacy debate that Facebook has provoked, and explains the business model that has turned a dorm-room venture into a multi-billion dollar enterprise."

H.H. Holmes: America's First Serial Killer (2004) - review in english


A
Director:
John Borowski

Runtime: 64 min


This story might have never been told, if the best true crime documentary director did not accept to fanatically investigate this case in detail, and to make a full length documentary, although there were no living witnesses who would speak on the subject of the first recorded American serial killer, H.H. Holmes. In just a few years, Holmes has been overtaken by Jack The Ripper in UK, but in my personal opinion, their crimes can never be compared, because Jack has never been of any interest to me, for he was never captured in the first place, and a serial killer without a face from my perspective is not a true serial killer at all, because what’s so bizarre when up to this day we don’t know the true background and motives?

Trouble in Amish Paradise (2009)

Director:
Andrew Tait

Runtime: 58 min

"Andrew Tait's film follows Ephraim Stoltzfus, an otherwise average Amish man who had been excommunicated and shunned for daring to suggest that some of the rules imposed by the community elders might be a tad unnecessary. His ultra-conservative Older Order Amish church subscribes to the same version of the Bible used by their Swiss/German forefathers, written in an antiquated form of Deutsch that most of them don't understand. After Ephraim and his equally inquisitive brother, Jesse, committed the cardinal sin of reading the Bible in English, they came to the realisation that many of their lifestyle codes hadn't been dictated by the good book at all.

Although his belief in God was unshakeable, Ephraim nevertheless displays a healthy sense of irreverence towards some of the wackier aspects of his faith. He has no idea, for instance, why Amish males have to wear that distinctive, Abraham Lincoln-esque chinstrap, nor why their horse-drawn buggies have to be painted a certain shade of grey. You would think, after all, that God had better things to do with his time than dictate the finer points of facial topiary and vehicle maintenance.

Tait's film manages to illustrate the frustrating inconsistencies and nonsensical barriers of life within a fiercely fundamentalist religious sect. And yet it also shows its loyally altruistic flipside, revealing that Ephraim had donated his entire life's savings to an Amish family in need, and despite his excommunication, the rest of the community rallied round with support when he and his family were in need themselves."

Manson: The Notorious Crime and Trial (2010)


Runtime: 45 min

"Bill Kurtis takes a penetrating look at one of the strangest and most violent crimes in California history--the grisly 1969 murders of seven people by the deranged Charles Manson and his three female followers who believed he was Jesus Christ come again. Kurtis talks with prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi about the terror that swept through Los Angeles after the shocking killings and the bizarre "Helter Skelter" defense at the trial. Kurtis also examines the attempt to silence a key witness, the sudden disappearance of one defendant's attorney, and the Manson Family's obsession with drugs, sex, and violence. But most of all, Kurtis is haunted by one question: How could three young women from seemingly normal families turn into monsters?"

The Man We Want to Hang (2002)


Director:
Kenneth Anger

Runtime: 13 min


"This film consists of nothing but drawings and paintings done by Crowley. As the camera moves about, you are given no narration or explanation of what you are seeing - unless you listen to the accompanying audio track with Anger himself talking about his film and his love of Crowley. It seems that most of the paintings in the film were owned by Led Zeppelin musician Jimmy Page, though a few others were borrowed from other sources."

The Book of Manson (1989)

Director:
Raymond Pettibon

Runtime: 118 min


"Charles Manson, claiming to be the Second Coming, leads his young followers down the path of sex and murder in this bizarre homage by renowned artist Raymond Pettibon."


"A day in the life of Manson and his dysfunctional family, as filtered through Pettibon's distinctive sensibility. In this fictional verite drama, Pettibon and co-director Dave Markey envision the paranoid obsessions and violent anomie of an apocalyptic cult in the waning of the 1960s. As in all of Pettibon's tapes, the sense of insularity (they all appear to be shot in one living room), the slacker/punk aesthetic, and the deadpan ensemble of amateur actors combine with Pettibon's startlingly original writing to form a bleakly ironic, if often outrageous, evocation of an American subculture."
