Don’t go into Thought Crimes: The Case of the Cannibal Cop looking for answers about whether or not Gilberto Valle, the so-called “Cannibal Cop” (whose lurid fantasies about kidnapping, killing, and eating women transfixed and horrified the world) is guilty.

Today, the cable network put out a snippet (and will continue do so each day this week) that offers a clue […]
Banksy is in another documentary, but this time he didn’t make it himself. The Oscar-nominated artist is the subject of HBO’s Banksy Does New York.
