Abstract

Brian De Palma's Redacted borrows the forms of Internet video to dramatize incidents of atrocity in the Iraq War, and to question the limitations, and culpability, of new media at a time of war. The film's multifaceted approach conditions the viewer to doubt the substance and nature of its images.
