From the Lawrence Journal-World:
"Fall from Grace," the documentary directed by a Kansas University graduate student about Topeka’s Westboro Baptist Church, is getting national media attention as its national TV debut approaches.
The film, which depicts the anti-gay beliefs and demonstrations of the group led by Fred Phelps, airs at 9 p.m. Tuesday on Showtime, with several repeat showings planned. It was directed by K. Ryan Jones.
A Bloomberg News reviewer offers this take on the film:The 70-minute documentary marks the filmmaking debut of K. Ryan Jones, a student at the University of Kansas who interviewed Phelps and several of his 13 children. Most appear to have inherited the loony gene; one or two have also succumbed to the temptations of the deep-fat fryer.
Yet they do have one profound talent: spewing hatred.
