A brief reflexion about AMERICAN CRIME STORY If I had to choose a tv show of the last year, I wouldn't have any doubt: American Crime Story I have to confess I had a lot of doubts about the quality of the project. I am not a real fan of its creator, Ryan Murphy. I mean: He's able to get very entertaining and enjoable tv shows, but they are as shallow as a pond. But the miracle happened. AMERICAN CRIME STORY is not a perfect fiction. It doesn´t matter. It gets something more difficult: to capture the zeitgeist of a place and a time. ACS works in different ways that they feed between them. It's a lot of things at the same time. It's the chronicle of one of the most popular stories of the criminal America. It's too a dazzling exposition of the judicial system of the USA and its paradoxes. You can find also a portrait about the borning of the Reality TV and specially a treaty about racial issues. I don't want to do spoilers but I'd like to highlight the episode focused on the popular jury. In this episode we can check everything we discussed in the previous paragraph. A process in theory so relevant and driven by a lot of regulations and laws becomes somewhat arbitrary. The racial confrotation, the personal situation of every member of the jury, the manipulation of the laws by the well paid team of the Defense... Everything counts. Some times, more than the own justice. To sum up, I strongly reccomend this show to everyone.
