Movie of the Day: Dear Zachary: A letter to a Son About his Father

Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son about his Father is directed by Kurt Kuenne and released in 2008. It is a documentary about Dr. Andrew Bagby. Who was a dear friend of the director who was murdered by his ex-girlfriend Shirley Turner. After the murder, Turner announced that she was pregnant with Dr. Bagdy’s baby, and from there, a whole bunch of chaotic events happened as if the killing of Dr. Badgy was not the most horrific thing that occurred to Dr. Badgy’s parents and his friends. More tragic events soon followed from the lack of justice from the Canadian government.

I went through my Instagram over the weekend, looked at my feed, and stopped at a post about this documentary. It struck my interest, and I looked up where to watch it. Luckily, I was able to watch it through Tubi. This whole documentary left me with two feelings when I finished watching it. The first is how slowly the law worked in Canada and how preventable the events after the murder of Andrew Badgy could have been stopped. I do not want to give too much away about the documentary. So, I’ll leave it up to you to watch or learn more about this case.

If you are into documentaries, I highly recommend giving this a watch. It left me in tears for Andrew’s friends and family.
