The 1969 Ted Kennedy scandal still resonates almost 50 years later in the first serious film treatment that is sure to be as controversial…

Review of Chappaquiddick (2018)

By Danielle White (52) for Austin Chronicle (7,653) on 08 Apr 2018

Director John Curran's Chappaquiddick is a decent Cliff's Notes version of events, though it's hard not see sanitization masquerading as ambiguity…

Review of Chappaquiddick (2018)

An account that one can respect for its refusal to sensationalize, but that saps the tale of much dramatic energy…

Review of Chappaquiddick (2018)

By Susan Granger (2,214) for SSG Syndicate (1,551) on 06 Apr 2018
