Dr. Burgess is an absolute trailblazer in her profession. This documentary did a great job giving her well deserved recognition for her work and her impact. It was hard to watch the prolific discrimination against victims not so long ago but the discomfort is testament of the progress made through Dr Burgess' work. There's still much work to do, but here could not have been possible without her dedication to helping those who were subjected to violence. Loved that the documentary also called out the widespread sexism she had to deal with throughout her career only to have her dedication and talent to prevail. This still happens too much. The road for women is still too hard, but the road she helped paved cannot be underestimated.

(Speaking as an aficionado of the true crime genre)
I found this documentary to be endearing, educational, and riveting. Dr. Burgess contributed so much to modern Forensic Psychology and her name is rarely spoken in the field.
It also made me re-think my love for the show, "Mindhunter", due to its complete bastardizing of Dr. Burgess' actual lived experience. This woman had 5 children and a husband who became a pilot to ensure that his wife could pursue her high demand career and still be around her small children. That was such an endearing story and the show made her the opposite. (The documentary never discusses the series, however it's pretty obvious that the fictional character is based on her).
10/10 must watch!

This of course is the former and it is a breath of fresh air - having had just finished a 'troubled teen' documentary that Max produced, which was so disappointing, then to come over to this "campire films" production who gave us greats such as " Jiro dreams of sushi" and "a glitch in the matrix" - I am just so appreciative of the professionalism and expertise BOTH by the filmmakers AND the subjects - which is becoming more and more rare these days. For one thing, it features the amazing Dr Ann Burgess, a true pioneer in the study and research and quantifying of criminal behavior - who is, imo, a national treasure and subject matter I could watch for hours.

When I read about this show online, I was all hyped up for it. But from the opening lines to the end of the second episode (I didn't watch the third) it was a constant struggle to understand what was being said. I understand the interview tapes of victims and killers are of poor quality, but surely there is a way to enhance them. I finally put on over-the-ear headphones and turned them way up to hear the dialogue clearly enough to keep watching. Even the rest of the show's audio was bad. It gave me a whole new appreciation for rape victims then and now -- how tragic that they were rarely heard or believed, or worse, blamed. Hats off to Ms. Burgess for doing the work and making a difference.
