    Excellent Documentary

    Having lived in Indianapolis for most of my life (since 1973), I remember seeing and hearing about this story throughout the years. But I always wanted to know more. I was only 9 at the time so I don't remember seeing any of the news stories or live coverage, I'm sure by design by my parents. To finally see the footage, feel the intensity as though it was happening live today, was quite an experience. Thank you so much for creating this documentary and allowing me to finally gain perspective on this important piece of Indianapolis history. Well done!!!

    Excellent Documentary

    I'd been waiting a long time to watch this and it was well worth the wait. The fascinating true story of Tony Kiritsis is beautifully executed in this entertaining and and informative documentary. Thoroughly well done and high recommended.

    Meaningful on many levels

    I was a young man in Indianapolis when this event occurred, and watching this footage in the hands of a skilled documentarian some forty years later was so meaningful on so many levels. Some of the issues raised are obvious and easily articulated; many others will have you pondering what you just saw long after the credits roll.

    Worth the Extra Time

    A well-made film by what would appear to be a first-time feature length documentarian. It could probably stand to lose 5-10 minutes of fat, particularly in the final 20 or so, but ultimately compelling. It isn't for everyone, as it does expect some patience with its stylistic choices. Give it time, though, and I feel you will walk away satisfied.

    You want to watch this one...

    Kudos to the filmmakers! Absolutely astonishing documentary that will hold you to the screen in the same sense Tony held Dick.

    This should be seen by all journalists and law students and for those who like the seat of your pants thrills of real crime. This is the stuff that documentary filmmaking should be.

    Just watch it! You won't be disappointed.
