    • 2015 June 21, Neil Genzlinger, “Review: ‘Requiem for the Dead’ on HBO Explores Gun Violence in America”, in The New York Times[1], →ISSN:
      A documentary about gun violence that has its premiere on HBO on Monday has been given extra topicality by the massacre in Charleston, S.C. That, though, isn’t necessarily to the film’s benefit. It might draw additional viewers, sure, but it also underscores the project’s voyeuristic shallowness.
