Tabloid (2010)

Documentary about the Mormon sex in chains case.

I can't think of much to say about the technique -- this is a standard-format documentary, with extensive interviews and the occasional formal frippery which is supposed to add humor or alleviate the monotony -- and the story per se is, I think, a curious display of American culture on opposite ends of the spectrum and the consequences of their coming together for a moment. As for tabloids, on the other hand, there is an interesting question: is this film supposed to be an exposé or is the title meant in the same way as, for example, Film (1965) and High School Musical?
