Very well executed

one of my absolute favorites!

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

An insight into life in prison from one of the Manson family murderers, her words her feelings. Certainly a discussion piece!

This movie has clearly been made to help this murderer's chances for parole. It's fairly well made but ultimately doesn't really fly. Her poor-me self-justification coupled with her poorly hidden murderous rage at Sharon Tate's sister at a parole hearing actually reveal the person she still is--someone with no feelings except for for herself. Bottom line, she wasn't just present at the killings, she was a brutal and enthusiastic participant, stabbing and stabbing people as they begged for their lives. Even as she speaks in this documentary, her thoughts are mostly about how the Manson murders affected HER.
