While I watch a lot of

While I watch a lot of reality television, I thought the style of F is for Fake was too disorienting for my "filing cabinet mind", and I actually like the more straightforward way the "facts" were presented in The Thin Blue Line.

I agree that the way the people were presented had an interesting effect on whose story the viewers ended up finding more believable.   For some reason I immediately associated Harris's orange outfit with prison, but it took me longer to realize Adams was in prison as well.  The combination of the courtroom illustrations, their actual appearances, and the (odd) reenactments, made it was hard for me to take any of the witnesses seriously.    

The uncertainty of the whole case makes me wonder how many crimes are really ever "solved"
