DVD Reviews of The Fourteenth Victim - Eliot Ness and the Torso Murders
DVD Review: A fine tribute to lost lives.
Summary: 5 Stars
Well, this pushed all the right buttons for me!
A true-life mystery, with a fascinating figure at its centre, still unsolved after all these years (well, actually, the last point is infuriating, but that's not the film-makers' fault).
The Cleveland Torso murders occured in the 30s, and the victims were male and female, black and white, even one guy who had some money, though most of them seemed to be homeless. Some of them are not even identified as we speak.
We're familiar with the Elliot Ness of Hollywood makeover; well, Hollywood wouldn't make this story, I'm sure. The Ness of reality after the Capone take-down failed to solve these serial-killings, and had a chequered personal life in tandem. (OK, Hollywood did make a movie about the equally unsolved Black Dahlia case, but it got to linger over the stories of beautiful, brutalized women - the murders of homeless people of either sex wouldn't play as well to Hollywood bean-counters, I'm sure).
It's a very measured, involving work, and a great tribute to the poor victims, whose tough lives ended in horror and whose names, if known, have largely been forgotten. In the absence of justice, this documentary is all that can be done for those lost lives.
