Review of The Look of Silence (2014) by Ben L — 24 Jan 2016
I was going to go on about how this was done before with The Act of Killing but then I see this is a follow-up film by the same bloke. This also shows murderers describing their acts with ignorant pride but this seems to be more of a family issue as he was trying to find the people responsible for killing his brother.
I have to say, some of the interviews were a little bit awkward and unnecessary. Unlike the previous film, here, he seems to milking it all a little bit. Still, a good job exposing the horrible things that have gone on and seem to be still a real problem in Indonesia.
I still have no urge to go there.
