Dead Man's Line Movie Trailer #2 | The True Crime Story of Tony Kiritsis

On the morning of February 8, 1977, Tony Kiritsis walked into an office on East Market Street and wired a shotgun to mortgage broker Richard Hall’s head. After making a 40-minute 911 call that ran the emotional gamut from polite respect to seething rants and tearful breakdowns, Kiritsis then paraded Hall along the streets of downtown Indianapolis followed by a cadre of police and media who were unable to do anything other than watch the event unfold. Kiritsis went on to hold Hall captive for three days as SWAT snipers, the bomb squad, and FBI looked for a way to disarm him without Hall being shot. The crisis culminated in a shocking press conference broadcast live on TV. Dead Man's Line, the whole documentary, is now free on YouTube    • Dead Man’s Line | The True Story of Tony K...   The event was remarkable in that many issues and trends that would later become more commonplace first came to the public’s attention during the ’77 kidnapping of Dick Hall. From one of the earliest instances of FBI psychological profiling and the first use of mini-cams that allowed local TV news teams to cover the event live (without the benefit of tape delay) to the intricacies of the insanity defense strategy (the Kiritsis case contributed to the law eventually being changed), Dead Man’s Line captures the high stakes nexus of these converging themes all while the lives of two men hung by a thread for three long days. Conducting over 40 interviews with eyewitnesses, law enforcement, media, and legal experts, the filmmakers have gathered newspaper articles, court documents, psychiatric reports, dramatic photos, audio recordings, and hours of footage shot by local media, making this film the most comprehensive account of the 40-year-old Kiritsis incident, one of the most harrowing tightrope walks in the history of Indianapolis. #kiritsis
