Subject: "Brooklyn Matters" doc on WNYC's Brian Lehrer this
I finally saw the Brooklyn Matters documentary -- it's a short film that wraps up the Atlantic Yards development controversy, and gives it a lot of context. It might make you feel a little sick if you love Brooklyn.If you haven't been following it so closely, or even if you have, this is a film to see. I think it's very compelling by sticking to facts and staying away from preaching or polemic. Most of the screenings are free.
