Jeff Shannon Seattle Times There's a good film noir to be made from this morass of human foibles, but British documentarian Paul Yule has the advantage of nonfictional context. Rated: 3/4 Jan 19, 2007 Full Review Mark Feeney Boston Globe The worst thing about this fine documentary is its title. Dec 15, 2006 Full Review Bill Stamets Chicago Sun-Times Adultery, abuse, and astronomical art world prices are packaged with creepy background music and cliched close-ups of court records. Rated: 2/4 Oct 27, 2006 Full Review Ken Fox TV Guide [A] disturbing but undeniably entertaining film. Rated: 3.5/4 Jul 26, 2006 Full Review Read all reviews
