The Witmans (2020)
Heart breaking but biased
I feel for the parents, losing a son at the hands of the other. It's unimaginable. But these parents are in extreme denial. This documentary is very biased and does not present all the facts of the crime. Despite a sometimes lacking police investigation, there has never been any viable evidence that points to another suspect. This crime was borne of anger and passion. Zack may have mostly gotten along with his brother throughout their lives, but on that day he snapped. Zachs inability to be honest has caused so much damage and trauma to his parents. Perhaps they could have grieved Greg and been able to live a more peaceful life together if he had told them the truth after the crime. It's frightening that a teen who brutally attacked his brother to the point of near decapitation now walks among us.
Because We Are Girls (2019)
Strength and bravery
The sisters in this film showed incredible strength and bravery. Revealing what they went through will not only help them but so many others who are silent about their abuse. There is no shame in being a survivor of sexual assault. The only shame and blame in this film falls on the parents who did not protect and stand up for their daughters. Their nonchalant attitude about their abuse disgusted me, especially their father. Its this environment that allowed this abuse to happen. These girls were victims and had no blame in what happened. Shame on the father for insinuating they did.
Dad's in Heaven with Nixon (2010)
A very moving documentary
This documentary was so moving. What a beautiful tribute to family, in all its complexities. I enjoyed all the "dusty old home movies" and felt they really added to the documentary.
Closure (2013)
Deeply moving documentary about adoption
I was deeply touched by this documentary, being an adoptee who went through a similar journey of discovery. This documentary painted such an accurate picture of how it is when you are a product of a closed adoption and trying to find your family. The road isnt always easy. Often there are secrets, heartache and disappointments. For those being negative about a closed adoptee wanting to find where/who they came from you will never know what it feels like to look in the mirror and question who you are or look like. That is something people who are not adopted take for granted. Angela is blessed with her adoptive family being so supportive. Many dont have that. Thank you for such an accurate and moving documentary about adoption.
Killing Fields (2016)
Real time crime solving
Rodie and Aubrey make a great team. Rodies passion and commitment to the victims and their families adds to this great show. As a viewer, he makes me care and want justice for the victims and families. The real time aspect of this show keeps it interesting. I cant wait for the next episode to see if they will finally be able to get enough evidence on Tommy Francise or Eugenie's ex husband.
Murder Chose Me (2017)
My new favorite ID channel show
Unlike certain reviewers, I appreciate the back story on Detective Demery. This show is about what made him the detective he became. Part of that is his background. His passion for justice and his compassion for the victims families are some of the qualities that make him and this show great. John Nicholson, the actor that portrays Detective Demery, is so well cast. Many times I have forgotten he was the actor and not Demery! I hope this show is renewed because this has become my favorite show on ID channel.
