D.C. Snipers Film Hits the Theaters in D.C.

This week I caught the generally positive reviews for the new thriller film Blue Caprice which recounts the D.C. Beltway snipers' reign of terror on the area back in the Fall of 2002. For three weeks, John Muhammad and Lee Malvo drove around in a blue Chevy Caprice, picking off random targets by firing through the peephole in the modified trunk to their vehicle. The Washington Post review calls the film "impressive, tasteful, and ultimately cold." It's good an adjective like "exploitive" doesn't sum up the movie. I probably won't be paying my money to see it, but that's my personal choice, not really a protest or boycott. The sniper's attack was harrowing enough to have lived through it back in 2002. However, I heard on the news the film is expected to pull large viewing audiences from around the D.C. area.
