7/9/17 review of documentary Letters from Baghdad, dir. by Sabine Krayenbühl and Zeva Oelbaum

Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of the documentary Letters from Baghdad, directed by Sabine Krayenbühl and Zeva Oelbaum.

The thread gives a summary of the film, which is about Gertrude Bell, a British woman instrumental in 20th-century Middle Eastern Diplomacy. The thread discusses the documentary's unique "acted out" style. It goes into depth about some of the incredible things Bell did. And it discusses some of the documentary's revelations about Britain's actions in the Middle East.

I saw this film at the Denver Film Society's Sie FilmCenter in Denver, Colorado.
