Errol Morris’s New Documentary about Abu Ghraib
When the infamous photographs taken by soldiers in Abu Ghraib prison were released, people wondered if these photographs constituted evidence of systematic abuse by the American military or the aberrant behavior of a few "bad apples?" In “Standard Operating Procedure," acclaimed documentary filmmaker Errol Morris investigates the context of these photographs to figure out what really happened at the prison. The documentary is currently playing at Lincoln Plaza Cinemas and the Angelika Film Center.
