Review of A Christmas Family Tragedy

On Christmas Day, 1929, respected tobacco farmer Charlie Lawson shot his wife and six of his children, and then turned the gun on himself in one of the most brutal murder-suicides in Southern history. Why would a family man commit such a horrific act? Well, Charlie took his reasons to the grave, but his crime has since sparked gossip, ghost stories, folk ballads, and even family feuds.
Using historic photos, authentic bluegrass music, exclusive interviews with family and friends, and chilling re-creations, A CHRISTMAS FAMILY TRAGEDY brings this local Carolina legend to the screen for the first time. In addition to investigating the tragic event, the film explores the tall tales and controversies that have sprung up in the aftermath, uncovering relevance for today s audiences. A true Southern gothic tale, A CHRISTMAS FAMILY TRAGEDY seethes with a potent atmosphere and rich regional flavor.
