Misleading Innocence is a fascinating dive into the tangled web of urban planning and public policy, specifically focusing on those often-overlooked overpasses on Long Island. The film's tone oscillates between somber reflection and critical insight, as it unveils the decisions made by Robert Moses and their lasting impact on the community. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing us to absorb the complexities of the subject matter. It’s not just about bridges; it’s about what they symbolize—access, segregation, and the politics of space. The practical effects are minimal, relying instead on archival footage and interviews that bring the past to life. The storytelling feels almost personal, making the film distinctive in how it reveals the unseen consequences of infrastructure decisions.
