MMU Online Archive – THE THIN BLUE LINE

MMU Online Archive – THE THIN BLUE LINE

In this MMU Online seminar, filmmaker Matt McCormick explains how Errol Morris’ documentary THE THIN BLUE LINE fits into the history of documentary films; assesses the film's controversial use of reenactments; and considers what it has to say about the nature of truth.

The lecture is meant to be watched before watching the film. Then, find and watch the film on your own, and finish up with the recording of the live Q&A (where spoilers will almost certainly be discussed!)
