Dreams of a Life
UK 2011, 95 minutes
Dir. Carol Morley
Genres: Documentary
Synopsis: The unknown life of Joyce Vincent is sensitively reconstructed and explored in this troubling documentary about the death of a woman whose body lay undiscovered in her North London flat for nearly three years.
“Impressively assembled and exhaustively researched, this is a grimly fascinating, deeply upsetting documentary-slash-mystery that raises some uncomfortable questions.”

2 stars (Good Try) Dying undiscovered occurs so shock element reduced. Interviewees were unconvincing & could have been actors instead of real thing - not having her sisters lessened the point of the exercise. I don't find documentary dramas in general convincing as fact. ~Tubbs
