A Unique Look at a Well-Known Tragedy
26 March 2018
Casting JonBenet is, obviously, about the infamous JonBenet Ramsey case that captured the disturbed attention of America in the 90s. However, it's also a documentary about documentaries, recognizing and embracing the fact that editorializing is impossible to sidestep when you have humans behind the scenes. An art house doc that often gets a little too self-reflective for its own good, it's still a uniquely disturbing and absurdly funny way of depicting the truth vs. social consciousness.
