Rory Kennedy to direct documentary about Boeing 737 crashes for Netflix

It feels so far away now given the current crisis facing the world, but it was only a year ago that the world was facing a smaller-scale crisis thanks to the evidently disastrous design of Boeing’s 737 Max aircrafts. Now, in what is being presented as a way to “put a human face” and the hundreds of lives lost in 737 crashes, filmmaker Rory Kennedy (Last Days In Vietnam, Ghosts Of Abu Ghraib) is going to direct a documentary about the airliner, Boeing, and the people who have died for Netflix. It was originally planned as a series, but Variety now says it’s being reimagined as a feature documentary, with a lot of “first-person accounts” and (apparently) an approach that will specifically allow audiences to “make up their own minds about what happened and why.”
