Synopsis:
In the 80's, in the upper-middleclass
district of Great Neck, the awarded Professor Arnold Friedman is arrested for
possession of some magazines of child pornography. A further investigation of
the police discloses that apparently Arnold and his eighteen years old son Jesse
molested his young students during their private computer class. Their Jewish
family tears apart with the situation and the sentences of Arnold and Jesse.
Brian's Rating:
C- : The most interesting thing about this movie had nothing to do with the
movie. I found it interesting how the media, although portraying facts the
entire time, can so easily manipulate us as viewers into thinking whatever they
want, whenever they want.
Documentaries just do not do it for me, but if you like them, then take a shot
at this one to dive a little deeper into scandal.
The
Freak's Rating: B- : I was thoroughly entertained by this one.
Whenever you see an interview on television with a neighbor of a guy who was
nuts, they always say "he seemed like such a normal guy". The film shows
footage of the family being completely normal, creating a bit of a bond between
the family and the viewer...enough of a bond that when the criminal activity
comes out you do question the accuracy.
