Quick Reaction: Brother's Keeper


The Ward brothers were four grown men with limited educations who lived in a dilapidated house out in the country. People mostly left them alone until one brother suffocated another one to death with a pillow. What followed was a media circus that this documentary captures. It's a quiet documentary. The documentarians stay out of the way for the most part. If you can get used to the less flashy approach of documentaries at the time, then this is a really good one with some odd characters and some interesting discussion about class.

Verdict: Weakly Recommend
