  6. Review: 'West of Memphis' makes strong case

    For astonishing injustice put to rest at long last, the holiday moviegoer has at least two options. One: "Les Misérables." And two: "West of Memphis," a strong, blood-boiling documentary from director Amy Berg, who made the similarly fine "Deliver Us From Evil," about a defrocked Catholic priest's appalling crimes and those of his protectors.

  9. 'West of Memphis' full of real-life twists and turns

    One might assume that a story already covered by a trilogy of documentaries, numerous books, countless articles and with a trail of celebrity supporters including Johnny Depp, Eddie Vedder and Natalie Maines had already earned enough attention. The young men known as the West Memphis Three &mdash; Damien Echols, Jason Baldwin and Jessie Misskelley &mdash; became modern-day folk heroes as the story of their<strong> </strong>imprisonment over the graphic, sensational 1993 murders of three 8-year-old boys in West Memphis, Ark., spread during their nearly two decades in jail.

  12. 'Memphis' and why death penalty must be repealed

    As Maryland legislators debate the repeal of the state's death penalty, everyone should go to see an excellent documentary, "West of Memphis," directed by Amy Berg. Sadly, three teenagers were falsely convicted of murders which someone else committed and they had their youth taken from them. Only because of the dedication of so many supporters were the three released after serving around 19 years in prison. However, they can't be compensated by the state of Arkansas because the government refuses to admit its malfeasance.
