Tony Kiritsis, Richard Hall, and the True Story Behind Dead Man’s Wire: A Conversation with the Makers of Dead Man’s Line

On February 8, 1977, Tony Kiritsis wired a shotgun to Richard Hall's neck. Then he paraded him through the streets of Indianapolis. What followed was one of the most extraordinary hostage crises in history.

We talked to documentarians Alan Berry and Mark Enochs about their 2018 documentary film on the case: Dead Man's Line. They will talk about the facts of the case, the underlying personalities of those involved, and the aftermath, as well as the recent movie based on the case, Dead Man's Wire.
