And I'm going there soon!
5 April 2023
It was a bit odd to watch "Boston Strangler" now, since I'm planning a trip to Boston soon. But anyway, it's worth seeing. The movie focuses less on the murders than on a pair of women (Keira Knightley and Carrie Coon) who set out to solve the case. Being women, they of course did not have an easy time doing this in a male-dominated field.

As with many movies focusing on investigations, there's some focus on the protagonists' home life and how their work affected that. All in all it's not a great movie, more of a by-the-book focus on an event. Even so, it gives one a feeling of how the murders held Boston in terror for a few years. Worth seeing.
