Good:
--Interviews with very relevant people associated with the events. --Has a focus on the victims rather than the perpetrator. --Some exploration of the attitudes of society at the time. --Some archival footage.
Not good:
--A misleading title. It's as much about prejudice as it is about the cases. --There's a lot of blame to go round but the film makers mainly focus on male attitudes at the time, almost as if the attacks were part of a male conspiracy. It's perfectly right to address those but I felt it was wrong to make this become the major takeaway from the events in Yorkshire. --Too little time is given to taking us back in time to understand the broader context in which the events happened in. There's too much returning to and repetition of the same points. I think a great deal more could have been done with its 3-hour run time.
