Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.5|5.0
Starsìììì
StrongIsland takes its audience on a well-balanced
review of the disturbing 1992 murder of William Ford Jr. His sister and the
director of the film, Yance Ford, make an investigation of her brother’s death
with a review of how they came to live on Long Island through the evening he
was killed and then, examine the days that follow her brother’s murder. Yance
Ford interviews family, friends, and investigators as a means of understanding
this shocking and emotionally disturbing event. This documentary stands as one
of the best in the business. Sensitively written, the film examines the
entire spectrum of events from multiple viewpoints. It deserves high praise
for camera use and professional, sensitive interviews that thoroughly explore hurtful,
shocking events. Great work for Director Yance Ford.
