Elizabeth Short
Fans of Documentary, Crime films may find Elizabeth Short especially interesting thanks to its engaging atmosphere, visual presentation, and entertainment value.
Using archival footage, newsprint images, text and an innovative use of audio, award winning filmmaker Deco Dawson has fashioned a sensitive yet harrowing collage account of the 1947 Black Dahlia murder. Created exclusively using crude digital technology, the film presents a human side to the murder, focusing on the victim Elizabeth Short and not the often-sensationalized aspects of the murder and unknown murderer.
