FRONTLINE: “DRUG LORD: THE LEGEND OF SHORTY”
July 21, 2015  | By David Bianculli

PBS, 9:00 p.m. ET

 
This documentary, released theatrically last year, is about Joaquin Guzman Loera, the Mexican drug lord known as “El Chapo.” If that name sounds familiar, it’s because he’s the drug lord who vowed to escape from his high-security prison – and just did. The documentary is updated with a new prologue reflecting the latest, but the main story is about the filmmakers, who set out to find and interview “El Chapo” prior to his 2014 capture. Check local listings.
