TELEVISION . . . "INDICTMENT THE McMARTIN TRIAL":

Oliver Stone co-produced what TIME reviewer Ginia Bellafante calls a "gripping--albeit didactic--new HBO movie" about the mass paranoia surrounding day care centers and allegations of sexual abuse in them during the 1980's. Among the victims of the hysteria were the McMartin family, who were accused of horrific crimes in their Southern California day care center. Their trial, then the longest and costliest in American history, ended in 1990 with no convictions. But screenwriters Abby and Myra Mann's nine-year obsession with the case leaves the film feverishly trying to convince any doubters of the McMartin's innocence.
