"Leavenworth"

U.S. Disciplinary Barracks
Ft. Leavenworth, Kansas
Mike Hale of The New York Times reviews "Leavenworth," about the Lorance case here. Excerpt:
The filmmakers — the series is directed by Paul Pawlowski, a veteran of sports broadcasts and documentaries, and Steven Soderbergh is an executive producer — present all of this with brisk competence. They frame the obvious paradoxes, such as how conservative support of [1LT Clint] Lorance entails casting the troops who testified against him as liars or pawns. They don’t establish a real point of view, though, or weave the divergent threads in a way that’s particularly surprising or moving.
