The jinx: the life and deaths of Robert Durst is a phenomenal 5 part documentary from hbo. Directed by the guy that did capturing the Friedman’s. I would recommend going in to it without researching it first for maximum entertainment.
[QUOTE=“cluaindiuic, post: 1107635, member: 258”]Well, Capturing the Friedmans is superb in a hugely disturbing kind of way.
Is this more messed up?[/QUOTE]
Not as messed up as friedmans but its compelling. The director actually had a movie out a few years ago about it starring Ryan gosling. The protagonist Mr durst then approached him to make a documentary and to give his side of the story. He is heir to a billion dollar fortune in the states.
Despite David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson and creator Chris Carter being spread to the winds on other projects, they’re all coming back for the new miniseries, the details of which are being kept in a locked drawer guarded by a suspicious type endlessly puffing on Morley cigarettes. So we don’t yet know if any of the other characters – Mitch Pileggi’s Walter Skinner, say, – or creative team will be back for duty. Especially since the writers who worked with Carter to create the original series have themselves gone on to chart their own telly and movie courses.
“I think of it as a 13-year commercial break,” Carter says in a statement put out by Fox. “The good news is the world has only gotten that much stranger, a perfect time to tell these six stories.” Production is now scheduled to kick off this summer. If all this excitement has re-ignited your X-passion, check out our celebration of the show and take a listen to when we had Gillian Anderson in the Podcast booth and peppered her with geeky questions about the series.
