<![CDATA[West of Memphis - The documentary chronicles a shocking and sickening miscarriage of justice.]]> Critics of our criminal justice system don’t have to search far for nightmare scenarios of wrongful convictions. From cases of false confessions to exonerations through DNA testing, the past few decades are rife with tales of injustice that would give even Kafka the willies.]]> <![CDATA[TPB AFK: The Pirate Bay — Away from Keyboard - The torrent site’s founders get a legal lesson IRL.]]> I first heard of The Pirate Bay when a friend told me about this site where he had just downloaded and watched Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle — then in theaters — at the comfort of his own home.

<![CDATA[Brooklyn Castle - A real-life slice of chess pie.]]> At I.S. 318 junior high in Brooklyn, N.Y., the “geeks are the athletes,” and Brooklyn Castle is the story of how these inner-city kings and queens fight to keep their standings.]]> <![CDATA[Beauty Day - Before ‘Jackass,’ there was Cap’n Video.]]> Don’t feel stupid: I didn’t know who Ralph Zavadil was, either.

That’s because there’s something about watching stunts of bodily harm that holds universal appeal.]]> <![CDATA[Diana Vreeland: The Eye Has to Travel - An icon of fashion gets the spotlight in a new documentary.]]> Diana Vreeland: The Eye Has to Travel

<![CDATA[The Right to Love: An American Family - A documentary follows one gay couple’s fight for ‘The Right to Love.’]]> Just handfuls of hours ago, as part of Election Day, the Senate gained its first openly gay senator. Even to a heterosexual male like me, the win of Wisconsin’s Tammy Baldwin is an encouraging step that our country is slowly starting to accept that we aren’t all alike, that differences should be celebrated, rather than feared. ]]> <![CDATA[Searching for Sugar Man - One sweet rockumentary.]]> This is a golden age of documentaries, and I don’t mean the propagandistic variety via Michael Moore or 2016: Obama’s America.
