Speakeasy Dollhouse Documentary Trailer
"Of Dolls & Murder" director, Susan Marks, has created a Kickstarter to fund her sequel documentary on Speakeasy Dollhouse and Cynthia von Buhler. SPEAKEASY DOLLHOUSE is the true story of Cynthia von Buhler's grandparents, who bootlegged liquor and owned two speakeasies in Prohibition-era New York City. It centers mainly around her grandfather who was shot and killed in 1935, but nobody in her family ever found out why. Von Buhler is uncovering the facts and telling the story in a graphic novel with photographs of miniature dolls and sets that she created to visualize and convey the story. Due to some of the graphic content of the video I won't post it here. To view the Speakeasy Dollhouse Kickstarter Video, click here.

Of Dolls and Murder
Inspired by the Nutshell Studies, Indie filmmakers Susan Marks and John Kurtis Dehn, are currently producing a documentary film, OF DOLLS & MURDER, an intimate look at dollhouse crime scenes. The Nutshell Studies of Unexplained Death were a series of intricately designed dollhouse-style dioramas created by Frances Glessner Lee, a millionaire heiress with an interest in forensic science.
