Framing John DeLorean
Docmentary portrait of John DeLorean, the brilliant automaker's rise to stardom and tragic, shocking downfall. To some he was renegade visionary, to others he was the ultimate conman. Interspersed with acted recreations, with Alec Baldwin playing DeLorean.

A smart, hook-filled blend of documentary and fictionalised re-enactments.

Like DeLorean, this documentary admirably is not afraid to take risks.
