    Movies at the Museum:
    Tabloid (2010)

    This documentary tells the story of a former Miss Wyoming whose quest for one true love landed her on the pages of tabloid newspapers following charges of abducting a young Mormon Missionary. In director Errol Morris’s words, this movie “is a meditation on how we are shaped by the media and even more powerfully, by ourselves.”
