Not unexpectedly there is a lot of material out there on this most notorious, ambiguous, shocking (unsolved?) crime .
a few choices:
Websites thelizziebordencollection.com
lizzieandandrew.com
lizzieborden.com
Youtube Lizzie Borden Documentary
Arnold Brown's Theory of the Lizzie Borden Case
Lizzie Borden - Ed McBain's theory
Another Lizzie
Agnes de Mille's ballet FALL RIVER LEGEND premiered in 1948. There is a DVD of a 1989 performance by The Dance Theater of Harlem with Virginia Johnson giving a powerful and eloquent portrayal of Lizzie expressed in pure movement. The ballet with a somewhat generic score by Morton Gould is perhaps too often redolent of OKLAHOMA (choreographed by de Mille) with its jolly hoedowns and at times a bit overly melodramatic but it has its strengths and it is definitely worth a look This same performance turns up on Youtube DANSE THEATRE OF HARLEM "FALL RIVER LEGEND"
