An urgent film, it's filled with chilling detail and propelled by clear-eyed compassion.
Full reviewYou may not agree with everything Dorothy Lewis says in "Crazy, Not Insane," but you come out of the movie alive to the place where evil and insanity meet and then fall back apart.
Full reviewDr. Lewis is clearly sharp... and the movie makes you want to read her work, not stick with Gibney's overview.
