Thanks for lots of good and intriguing recommendations, except for the one about the JonBenet film. I raised my kids in Boulder and two of their best friends growing up were friends of JonBenet and her brother. JonBenet was a real person and her brother still is. The film looks exploitative to me of these real people and the real pain behind this awful event.

I appreciate your POV. However the film may “look” it is a powerful work of art that I don’t feel it is exploitative. It is about the nature of truth and should be watched before it is judged and dismissed.
