The Manor

I found this documentary quite by accident. The various addictions and enabling behaviors are masterfully displayed while maintaining each person's dignity. I found myself drawn into this families inner-space almost immediately. I suppose what resonated with me most was the older brothers struggle to rationalize his participation within the family business. On the one hand, he was born into it and it had provided for his entire family. On the other hand, he clearly has some angst and doubts concerning the existence, much less with his participation, of the business. I also noted that the rooms were $650 before and after the re-branding of the hotel/halfway house. Very clever/honest editing. This could easily be a reality series. Or at the very least, a Part-2 would be nice.
