Diary of a Bad Lad (2010)
A story that catches you unawares
8 September 2005 - 5 out of 10 users found this review helpful.
I was totally taken in that this fiction film was an actual documentary, thanks to its naturalistic dialogue and performances. I was moved to horror, anger and outrage as I watched it, ready to protest to the organisers who screened it about how they could condone such journalism, right up till the very end. I thought I was watching a documentary about drugs, pornography and rape, but the real story, about the media's lack of ethics, crept up on me, caught me unawares, without me realising it I began judging the crew, in particular the presenter, for his incalculably inhumane and opportunistic behaviour. An excellent film.
