One of the year’s most powerful documentaries, "The Perfect Neighbor," just got a new trailer ahead of its October 17 premiere on Netflix that's already seared into my brain. It's composed almost entirely from police body-cam footage, immersing you in a harrowing real-life horror story of a neighborhood dispute turned bloody that, as sad as it is to say, is also deeply American.
The documentary comes from Emmy Award-winning director Geeta Gandbhir, one of the minds behind Netflix's most binged docuseries of the summer, "Katrina: Come Hell and High Water." One of the most talked-about films at this year's Sundance festival, "The Perfect Neighbor" won Gandbhir a directing award and earned a rare 100% critics' score on Rotten Tomatoes. It's already shaping up to be an early frontrunner for this year's Oscars circuit.
