Snakes and Ladders

About This Movie

So, 'Snakes and Ladders' is this intriguing documentary that oddly ties the Lindbergh baby kidnapping into the Wall Street fiascos. It's a bit jarring but in a good way, you know? The pacing feels a little uneven at times, but it adds to the tension. You get this raw and gritty atmosphere that really pulls you in, all the while challenging the viewer to connect these two seemingly disparate events. The archival footage is well used, and there’s a haunting quality to the storytelling. Plus, the lack of a well-known director gives it this almost underground vibe, which is distinct in itself. It’s not your run-of-the-mill doc; it has layers that make you think, which I appreciate.
