Crime Scene Greenpoint (2007) Online

On the morning of May 2, 2006 a fire broke out in the Greenpoint Terminal Market. The blaze spread so quickly that the Fire Commissioner immediately suspected arson. After the 10 alarm fire was put out the block was shut down as investigators combed the site for evidence. Fourteen firefighters were reported to have suffered minor injuries and no civilians were reported hurt. Crime Scene Greenpoint is a hallucinatory document of this event.

Crime Scene Greenpoint (2007)

** 1/2 (out of 4)

In 2006 a fire ripped through the Greenpoint Terminal Market in New York and it was later determined that it was set on purpose. This three-minute documentary captures some of the images of the location as firefighters worked to put it out. CRIME SCENE GREENPOINT is a mildly entertaining short that has some nice images of what was going on at the scene but I honestly can't say this is anything more than what you'd typical see on a news broadcast. The added music I'm sure is meant to add a darker tone to the images since we later learned that the fire was set on purpose but it just doesn't add too much.
