Style?

Shouldn't there be some discussion of the films style? It's got what seems to be a very striking style, particularly the vivid recreations. I think it's also noteworthy that the one scenario the film makers don't show recreated is the one which they believe happened. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.218.221.152 (talk) 02:11, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Awards"

The film was not allowed to be entered into the "Best Documentary Feature" catagory at the Hollywood Academy Awards because of Morris' (restrained) use of "dramatic re-enactments." I'll try to find some citable statement to this effect (it was widely reported at the time, hence my giving it as a flat fact), but I am nowhere near a sizable library, and ask others who are to see if they can come up with something. Thank you. --Ted Watson (talk) 19:46, 30 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Time of sunset on Thanskgiving in Dallas

05:21pm. If they want to a drive-in movie double header, it would start a little after sunset, and end probably three or four hours later. Not at midnight, six hours later. (72.228.168.195 (talk) 10:21, 2 March 2016 (UTC))[reply]
