Crazy, Not Insane

About This Movie

Crazy, Not Insane is a deep dive into the psyche of violence, and Gibney really captures the unsettling pull of Dr. Dorothy Otnow Lewis's work. It's not just about the cases, but how Lewis connects the dots in a way that’s almost haunting. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing you to sit with the discomfort of her findings. There's this stark atmosphere that hangs over the interviews with killers, contrasting their chilling confessions with the warmth of Lewis's empathy. It’s thought-provoking, not in a sensational way, but more like a slow unraveling of what makes us tick. There’s no flashy dramatization here, just raw, unfiltered dialogue that makes you reflect on morality and madness.
