Review of The Sentence
Tripp Sommer

"The Sentence" gives us insight from inside.
But twice I wrote "who are these people?".
I had a notion from the introductory notes, but some of their experience and perspective were lost on me because I didn't know who was speaking.
The music seemed appropriate to represent the young age of those who had been sentenced. And the fact that the same riff was repeated gave me a sense of the impending possiblity these kids would do MORE time. The sound of recidivism.
