Review of Family Affair (2010) by Ryan H — 31 Jul 2010
Family Affair is a fairly similar documentary to "Capturing the Friedmans." The key difference being that in Friedman's there are questions to the guilt of the offender, but in Family Affair, the guilt is laid out on the table.
In a way, that is what makes this documentary so hard to watch and equally so compelling. Told from the point of view of the brother of three sister victims of their father, Family Affair is a dark look at what effect abuse can have on the lives and psyche of an entire family.
I expect this doc to get a theatrical release this year, especially with Oprah on its side.
