West of Memphis

Writer and director Amy Berg delivered a powerful and the definitive documentary on the West Memphis Three. One of the greatest injustices in American Justice System gets a new treatment that shows how three young men were accused for a crime they never committed while the real killer is still free. Even the case was featured in previous excellent documentaries, this one has the power of hindsight which gives it perspective including new evidence and witness which lead the West Memphis Three to be freed. With the help of producer Peter Jackson, Berg and her film were helpful for the brave young men to get justice and make a film for the ages that shall remain a disturbing reminder because there other innocent people behind the bars due to the failure of justice. 1001 Films' coverage of films on DVD.
