I watched Dear Zachary last night.
I’m at a bit of a loss to describe how I feel about this film. It’s absolutely, undeniably, the most jarring/moving/gut-wrenching documentary I’ve ever watched — and it is, in that sense, a really well-made film.
That said, this film will pretty certainly crush your soul. I don’t believe a film has to make you feel good to be good, but this one certainly pushed the limits of that logic.
I don’t want to say too much because it really needs to be experienced with as little advance knowledge as possible — but I will say that after letting it sink in for a day, I’m glad that I saw it. It’s powerful.
The trailer is here.
