-
Who’s responsible for the buried body of a drag queen decomposing in the basement of a rundown Victorian in Louisville, Kentucky? That question keeps you watching this compelling two-episode, true crime series directed by Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato.
-
A gripping documentary that explores the infamous 2010 murder of drag performer James Carroll in Louisville, Kentucky, at the hands of gay couple Jeffrey Mundt and Joseph Banis — make that Mundt and/or Banis, with the documentary exploring in detail how the murder could have been at the hands of either. The deft exploration of that ambiguity sets Murder in Glitterball City apart, providing a master class in how to tell a true-crime tale.

The inclusion of Mr. Dominé’s florid prose and his fellow citizens’ good manners are parts of what makes “Glitterball” a supremely creative example of creative documentary. The facts are what they are. But the presentation and even the digressions make it all a story with layers, and atmosphere, and maybe even transcendent meaning about perception and justice.
