Où regarder Coup 53
- NickCallan9 mars 2026Good story but I was a bit disappointed with the storytelling and craft. There are times when it gets a little confused, or maybe I need to watch it again. I don't doubt the facts presented but not confident in how they were presented. Didn't like the animated stuff at all. There are times when it references events that seem completely out of context. I did like how it referenced itself throughout, i.e. watching them (Amirani/Murch) hear new information while in the editing room. Did not like his, Amirani specifically, was recorded hearing new information as though his reaction could be spontaneous. Felt like cheap drama. Important story though. Would love to discover more about Derbyshire and the history of his inclusion in the documentary.
