Retrospective

"AN EYE FOR JUSTICE: FILMS BY STEPHEN TROMBLEY"

Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, March-April 1997

 

“An Eye For Justice: Films by Stephen Trombley” is a revelation - not just of five hard-hitting documentaries deserving attention, but also of a filmmaker….Marked by camera work and dramatic scores that give them a feature-film feel at their best, Trombley’s movies are the result of years of research.

Capital punishment, the Holocaust, mandatory sterilization, and eugenics - the films of Stephen Trombley bear witness to evils we would prefer not to know about. There’s nothing comforting about the five documentaries in this retrospective of his work at the Museum of Fine Arts; not even the comfort of proselytizing. Relentlessly objective, they let the facts speak for themselves and demand that we respond….If there is to be justice, Trombley’s films indicate, it will not come from institutions but from those whose eye on them never wavers in its gaze.
