Media Review – ‘Jack the Ripper: The Definitive Story’ [2011]

A documentary on the crimes of Jack the Ripper, the lives of his victims, and who the killer might have been

Today I review one of my favourite documentaries on the unsolved murders committed by Jack the Ripper in 1888.

I watch quite a lot of true crime documentaries, and this is one that I return to.

A little about her story:

Nawi is a member of the Snake Clan, a group of people who lived in territories not conquered by other states, keeping the secrets of their power—and even their very existence—secret, living in isolation from other people. But a tragedy occurred (I don’t know what it was) that forced Nawi to flee, unknowingly ending up in the lands of the Clover Kingdom. There, a lonely man—a former magic knight who had lost his wife and child—found the little girl, who was hungry and dirty and didn’t even know the language, and decided to take Nawi in. He taught her the language and the way of life in their kingdom. When she turned 15, she decided to try taking the exam to become a magic knight, and thanks to her powerful magic, she managed to win the favor of 7 out of 9 orders, but she decided to join the Green Mantis (there were no special reasons; it was just that Jack reminded her of her own father, whom she had lost), and so she has been working in this unit for 4 years.

Edgar Degas (De-gah) was a French artist known for his paintings of ballerinas. Many of which are hanging in the rooms of children to this day.

I believe that Degas was the infamous Jack the Ripper. At the time of the murders, 1888, Degas was 50 years old. At this point his vision had began to diminish, but he wasn’t fully blind at this point. Degas resided in Paris, about 300 miles from London. However, it was easily possible to travel between the two by train. Something he would do frequently. Another artist, Whistler (“Whistler’s Mother”) lived in London, had sent Degas a letter chiding him for no longer dropping by for lunch like he’d normally do.

Degas was a frequent subject of gossip, and even to this day we have letters discussing his blatant misogyny. Vincent Van Gough even wrote to his brother Theo about Degas’ hatred towards women. At the time, ballerinas (Degas’ subject matter) were known to sell themselves after the show in arrangements handled by their mothers backstage. Some of his paintings with dark shadowy men in the background depict this exact thing occurring.

One of his most damning works, however, is a statue called “Little Dancer of 14 Years.” I’ll get into that in another post. However, there’s a book by French journalist Camille Laurens about the girl who posed for the statue. Even though she did obsessive research, Laurens was unable to find any information about this girl after a police record of her being stopped at the French border. Her older sister had stolen a large amount of money and they were attempting to flee the country. Shortly after the Parisian Salon where the statue was displayed, the girl vanished from history.

That’s only the tip of the iceberg that makes Degas deeply unsettling.

If there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s my love of true crime. That being said, Edgar Degas was Jack the Ripper.

I’ll explain in another post
