Product: One Day in September [VHS] (2006)
Rating: 4.0
Riveting Documentary
Others here have given extensive detail about the content of this fascinating film, so I won't bother with that. I'll just say that I came to the table with very little foreknowledge of this tragic event in history, and when it was over I felt as though I had been given a fairly balanced account. Douglas' narration is suitably understated, and the one surviving perpetrator is given an opportunity to present his side of the story (not that he comes off very sympathetically). An excellent and engrossing documentary, even if you aren't personally invested in the politics. I'd skip Spielberg's made up aftermath movie "Munich" and just stick to the facts as they're presented here.
