More like thisReview They manage to take an interesting story and make a rather poor documentary....nice job, National Geographic! What's the link between the fair and the serial killer?! The sick life of H.H. Holmes would make for an interesting documentary. And, the Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1893 would also make a very interesting documentary. However, the link between the two, at least through "Madness in the White City" is tenuous at best--a case of some interesting material assembled in a rather sensationalistic and silly manner. Much of the first portion of the show is about the Columbian Exposition. However, because this only occupies a small portion of the show and other shows tackled this much better and much more in depth, I was left a bit cold and would MUCH rather re-see the great documentary "EXPO: Magic of the White City". Then, somewhat abruptly, the film talks on and on about H.H. Holmes and sensationalized his actions and tried to somehow link it to the Exposition. However, if you listen carefully to this film, only two murders (out of possibly hundreds this sick creep committed) were actually done in Chicago during the fair's run. So why link the two events?! Three were killed and discovered in Toronto--so why not talk about Toronto and its link to Holmes?! An additional problem is that often the film really says nothing--stretching details out to the point where the viewer is tempted to change the channel. And, sensationalistic dialog doesn't help--especially since there is a lot of sick and real stuff we know about Holmes that was never discussed in the film. All in all, a very weak film that never should have linked Holmes with the Exposition. Instead, see a documentary or read a book about both.
