Honestly, idk what to rate this. Loved some parts, some felt dragged out. I think it is a good movie, and it’s really well made and directed. Beautiful cinematography to tie it all together. But idk how much I actually enjoyed it.
Heartbreaking final scene.
Edit: all the one star reviews for this are from people who don’t like ambiguity or can’t read subtext.
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
I think this was a great documentary and the first majority of it was great. However, I hate how it ended by heavily insinuating that it’s Eddy’s dad’s fault that he killed himself. That if he had a different “nurture” he would have ended up better. While it’s very possible that that’s true, you still have to look at the fact that he is the child of a mentally ill mother, and he was separated from his brothers after he had time to build a bond with them.
It’s not the father’s fault he killed himself. If anything, it’s the researchers faults.
