Documentary Review: Amanda Knox

This is a documentary with the main character of a murder investigation participating as narrator.  However the film includes the evidence against her, as well as the reason she won upon appeal.  This deal with a murder in Italy.  It was assumed Amanda and her boyfriend murdered Amanda's room mate Meredith Kercher as part of some kind of sex games.  Meredith was from England.  Twice she and her boy friend were convicted, and twice it was overturned upon appeal.  A third person was convicted.  His prints were all over the room.  They talked of some DNA evidence, but this was eventually thrown out.  This is a very good review.  Amanda uses the F' word too much.  And in the end, if she wanted to maintain her anonymity she would not have made this documentary.  Of course as a look at the credits, she s not listed as director or producer.  She was interviewed several times on camera.  I most like this movie as I can listen to the Italian, and read the subtitles.  I am surprised how much I can follow along.
