Divorce Corp -
a Documentary Worth Seeing
I saw Divorce Corp on opening night Jan 10th and it is NOT
boring. The documentary is by the same people who gave us the award winning documentary
and book in 2006 called MAXED OUT- about the predatory lending system and credit
card industry. I expect Divorce Corp (movie and soon to be released book) will
garner similar critical acclaim.
Spoiler alert: Our
Dearborn County Court system plays a part in this documentary that is not
flattering. It will probably make you question the wisdom of some of our local
officials who made a series of serious mistakes that cost one extended family a
lot of time away from their children and grandchildren who seem to be pawns in
the family court business. It also cost a lot of money on all sides, including county
taxpayers’ money.
The movie shows the national disgrace of our family courts.
This abuse goes well beyond Dan Brewington’s case. It illustrates several cases
of people courageous enough to allow their stories to be told in the hopes of
reforming our divorce and child custody rulings.
If you know anyone who is or has been through a divorce, you
must see this. But any citizen, wishing to be informed, will find this to be a short
1.5 hour lesson in family court and how it operates differently from criminal
court.
See the movie- it will make you think- it will make you
upset- and perhaps it will make you take action.
Divorce Corp has limited release and is only available
locally at the AMC Newport on the Levee until Jan 16. They have showings from
11AM thru 11 PM daily.
