MOVIE REVIEW

I don't watch documentaries very often. It's not that I don't like documentaries, but it's about availability and publicity. As with independent films, the ones that get watched are the ones that either get the backing of a slick marketing campaign, or rave reviews. These often go hand-in-hand. Furthermore, I don't have the luxury of the professional critics who get free passes to just about every movie in a year. I don't have the time or the money to go searching for the right film.
