Kuenne's Making A Murderer

accusing the prosecution, in the way that Kuenne mocks them with his rapid explanations of their misdoings, Making a Murderer is able to establish the conflict with the justice system by portraying the unethical law enforcement by purposefully using few minutes of trial footage to show how ignorant and threatening they are. These subtleties and other improvements could make the mini series appear more refined and could probably enhance Kuenne’s message without all of simple mishaps. Instead of being distracted by the editing issues, the viewer can focus on the immense pain that both the murderer and the Canadian Justice system had inflicted upon a wide group of people who cared deeply for Andrew Bagby.
However, Kuenne’s singlehanded effort
The audience has time to process the show and the scenes can potentially create a longer-lasting impression, as the viewer is able to space out the episodes at their leisure. However, as McNutt had mentioned, having multiple episodes where multiple reviews can accompany them, the audience becomes more critical of the shows motives and cinematographic strategies that are at play. Although this may seem natural, considering there is more material to analyze and the breaks in the episodes tend to create suspense or conclusions, this may detract from Kuenne’s original motives. Instead of being a large-scale home movie that describes all of the great values of his dear friend and also serves as a plea to correct the Canadian Bail system because of the transpired events, the mini-series may be more inviting to viewer scrutiny. Using the case of Making a Murderer, the directors had used many techniques that enhance the audience’s ideas of the accused men while also demonizing the Manitowoc County law enforcement. However, after the release and much discussion of the Netflix series, many articles had appeared that criticize the many purposeful omissions of the Avery case. Crucial evidence that was presented during the trial and further incriminates Steven Avery is left out and further
The original documentary with its strong appeal was able to achieve its goal of changing the Canadian bail policy with the Zachary bill. One can say that the documentary was successful because of the social change it brought to a “flawed” system. The immense support from the ones who had viewed the film made sure that bail can not be posted for people who are a danger to those under the age of 18, thus preventing future crimes of a similar nature from happening again (Kuenne). However, even though many debate over the metrics of social change that documentaries bring, “what may be at the base of the discussion is what a documentary filmmaker is and does” (Aufderheide 37). Aufderheide argues that both the expectations of filmmakers and their perceived impact can almost detract from the motive of the documentary and tools such as the Participant Index cannot quantify certain works of art (Aufderheide 35). Dear Zachary takes the liberty of painting a portrait of the Bagby family to show the impact that Andrew had left, and moreover, the devastation that had overwhelmed them because of the ensuing events. Kuenne’s motivation to turn his home movie into a public object meant for circulation was to correct the many legal injustices that had been inflicted upon lovable characters such as Bagby’s parents, who had received many support letters following the films release. One of the most
