About this movie

The name "Kitty Genovese" became synonymous with urban apathy after news that she was stabbed to death while 38 witnesses did nothing. Fifty years later, her brother uncovers a lie that transformed his life, condemned a city and defined an era.

I remember this case growing up in NY. Very sad for the family not knowing what really happened. Still not clear how many saw and did nothing vs those who called police. Interesting but still inconclusive it seems.
