The best HBO Max documentaries
original typically evokes the network’s acclaimed scripted fare. But although it doesn’t garner the same amount of recognition, its modern documentary output comes with an equal, and sometimes even greater, level of quality.
The man who helped to crack the case, larger-than-life special agent Doug Mathews, is just one of several colourful characters who help to fill in the gaps in a gripping tale of corporate corruption that deservedly picked up five Emmy nods. True crime documentaries don’t get much more personal than this four-part investigation into a family ripped apart by a senseless tragedy.
As its title suggests, Small Town News follows the ups and downs of KPVM-LD in the Nevada town of Pahrump, and in particular its attempts to take a bigger piece of the Las Vegas pie. Unfortunately for the brilliantly-named owner Vern Van Winkle, his gung-ho efforts are hampered by understandably disgruntled staff, ever-decreasing funds and the small matter of a worldwide pandemic.
These alternative history lessons are also interspersed with dramatic re-enactments starring Josh Hartnett, the former teen idol playing entirely against type as a recurring representation of white supremacy. It’s the kind of thought-provoking, eye-opening TV that should be mandatory curriculum viewing. From its cinematic opening credits to its enigmatic re-enactments, The Jinx showed how a real-life murder case could be presented as stylishly as any fictional prestige drama.
