The third review found in Las Angeles Times, “Documenting a 9/11 Fraud” written by Robert Abele, again discovers the fakery involved in Tania Head’s story of her involvement in the twin towers on September 11th. The article does find the purpose of the film to include the emotional toll the story and exposure took on all involved such as other survivors or anyone emotionally attached to that day for various reasons.
Yet the article also claims that the purpose of the documentary was not to focus on what makes a person want to do something like this, or what is her reasoning behind it but more so the portraiture of unanswered questions circling the situation. The author of this review does claim that Guglielmo took a less formal choice with the ending of the documentary saying it was an un-tasteful choice to show where Tania Head is now whereas the remainder of the film is done respectably and intriguing (Abele, 2012).I would agree with this reviewer as well but only to an extent because I feel the director was able to touch on the reasoning behind Head’s lying but in a tasteful manner so that it did not control the film. With the lack of depth into Head’s condition per say, I am unable to say that the analysis of Head’s lies were fully surfaced in the film.
