Bruce Sinofsky (March 31, 1956 – February 21, 2015) was an American documentary film director, particularly known for his films the Paradise Lost trilogy, Brother's Keeper and Metallica: Some Kind of Monster, all created with Joe Berlinger.
They jointly produced, edited and directed documentary films which have appeared on over 50 critics choice lists,[3] including Brother's Keeper (1992), the Paradise Lost trilogy (1996, 2004, 2011), Hollywood High (2003) and Metallica: Some Kind of Monster (2004).
Chicago Sun-Times film critic Roger Ebert, in his review of the movie, called it "an extraordinary documentary about what happened next, as a town banded together to stop what folks saw as a miscarriage of justice.
"[5] The Paradise Lost trilogy chronicles the inhabitants of a small southern town a year after a series of brutal murders, in a style similar to that of award-winning documentary filmmaker Errol Morris.
Sinofsky won a Directors Guild of America Award and two Emmys,[10] one for the first film in the Paradise Lost trilogy, The Child Murders at Robin Hood Hills.
