Regardless, as to whether or not Simien’s film turns out to be a winner, I just can’t waste a precious two hours on a Taylor Swift doc that, if any good, I can easily catch on Netflix next weekend. To hell with that. At least Simien is the director of the critically-acclaimed “Dear White People,” which was much better than the TV adaptation it received a few years back. Also in the works tomorrow is a screening of “Crip Camp,” another non-fiction film premiering at the Eccles, this one about a summer camp that inspired disability rights. Rarely does the fest open with a doc, let alone two, but it seems as though opening night of this 2020 edition will be a celebration of non-fiction film. Contribute Hire me
