We had such a great time at the Sundance Film Festival today. We saw a documentary in the competition called William Kunstler: Disturbing the Universe. It was about Kunstler the famous lawyer and was created by his two daughters. They did an amazing job of showing the metamorphosis he experienced throughout his lifetime as civil rights activist, father, and defender of some of the most hated criminals of his time.
The interesting thing was the strong inspirational message of the documentary. The sisters who created the film did a Q&A with thier mother and some of the people their father defended. the best part of that was seeing the man who Kunstler tried that defend that spent 7 years in prison for the Central Park murder only to be found completely innocent later. He was still so positive about life and performed a poem he wrote while in prison.
Drew and I haven't stopped talking about it all evening! I hope this movie becomes mainstreamed so that you can see it yourself. The Flix downtown often shows independent films like this one, so watch for it there. We are planning to attend another movie later this week from the dramatic competition and will let you know all about it.
