Eroll Morris directs this intrigueing documentry on Joyce McKinney. Who was at the centre of media histeria in the late seventies when it was alledged she kidnapped a mormon missionary and raped him for 3 days in a cottage in Devon. Interviewing Joyce, the film shows her side of this weird story and her life after the media attention. The film also depicts the media battle between paper giants the Mirror and the Daily Express and marks Joyce as potentially one of the first media driven celebrities of our time. Very interesting and entertaining. A definate watch on this one.
