Investigating the white savior-industrial complex
Time
|October 09, 2023
IN 2019, A DEVASTATING NEWS STORY RICOCHETED around the digital-media echo chamber.
As one headline summarized it: "American Woman Accused of Letting Hundreds of Ugandan Kids Die at a Fake Clinic." Her name was Renée Bach, and she faced a lawsuit on behalf of two Ugandan mothers who alleged that their children died after being treated at a malnutrition clinic where Bach practiced medicine without a license. (The case was settled in 2020.)
The three-part HBO docuseries Savior Complex revisits the thorny affair, previously dissected in the podcast The Missionary, adding updates, on-camera interviews, and nuance without sacrificing accountability. Filmmaker Jackie Jesko's disinclination to paint Bach as a bloodthirsty butcher or her detractors as heroic racial-justice crusaders is sure to rankle some viewers. But what emerges instead are revelations more astute and more disturbing, forged in a crucible of race, religion, money, and global politics.

SOME DAYS IT SEEMS WE LIVE IN A HORRID WORLD where most humans couldn’t give a fig about art. How many people in that world are going to care about a 65-year-old black-and-white movie—one that, for anyone who doesn’t speak French, requires the reading of subtitles?

A murder franchise finds its Monsters- and they're us
MIDWAY THROUGH MONSTER: THE ED GEIN STORY, the title character stares into the camera and warns: “You shouldn't be watching this.” He’s talking to two strangers who've interrupted him in the bloody aftermath of a murder. But the closeup makes it clear that Gein, played with eerie gentleness by Charlie Hunnam, is also addressing his audience of Netflix viewers. Then he revs his chainsaw and chases the men. Of course, we keep watching. In the next scene, Gein offers the spectacle of a dead, nude woman, strung up like a carcass in a slaughterhouse.

Slow Horses gets an explosive sister show
In the premiere of Down Cemetery Road, a desperate woman walks into a private investigator's office. “Let me guess,” says the detective, Zoë Boehm (Emma Thompson). “You've got a husband. He's got a secretary. Am I warm?” She is not. Neither a film-noir femme fatale nor a jealous housewife, Sarah Trafford (Ruth Wilson) has come for help in solving a mystery that has little to do with her own life. Her initially inexplicable obsession sets the tone for Apple's unusually humane conspiracy thriller.
