Canada's real life story of "Catch Me if You Can".
This documentary is informative as it follows Detective John Dunlop and his search for Richard Earl Rupert, a county-wide con artist that is hidden off the radar.
W5's Victor Malarek is the narrator and also the interviewer seen in formal one-on-one on location interviews. Some of the interviews were informal as he interviewed Dunlop and his coworker in front of the Greyhound Bus Terminal. Also, some interviews were moving interviews when they interviewed a Calgary detective in her car as she drove.
This documentary used 'B' roll footage such as Toronto intersections, Calgary landscapes, liaur stores and banks, to establish their location. It also used archival footage from security cameras of seniors home, banks, McDonalds and television achivial footage from America's most wanted.
Other archival footage it used was screen shots from the Toronto Sun and other major city newspapers.
They also used re-inactments of Ruperts attempts, such as walking into a senior's apartment. It editing they tinted the color to maroon to help the audience distinguish that it's a re-inactment.
It also used graphics, such as a map of Canada and pinpointing cities that Rupert has hit over the past decade.
Can't wait to see their next piece when they finally catch Richard Earl Rupert.
