Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father

Dear Zachary A Letter to a Son About His Father is a 2008 American documentary film conceived and created by Kurt Kuenne.

Kurt Kuenne and Andrew Bagby grew up as close friends in the suburbs of San Jose, California, and Bagby frequently appeared in Kuennes home movies. As these movies became more professional in quality in later years, Bagby invested in them with money he had saved up for medical school. While studying in Newfoundland, Canada, Bagby began a relationship with Shirley Turner, a twicedivorced general practitioner thirteen years his senior. Bagbys parents, friends, and associates were uneasy about the relationship because of what they saw as Turners offputting behavior. Turner moved to Council Bluffs, Iowa, while Bagby worked as a resident in family practice in Latrobe, Pennsylvania.In November 2001, as the relationship began to crumble, Turner became increasingly possessive. Bagby broke up with her and put her on a plane to Iowa. Turner drove almost 1,000 miles back to Pennsylvania overnight, and asked Bagby to meet her at Keystone State Park. Bagby was found dead the following day, face down, with five gunshot wounds. When Turner learned she was a suspect in the murder investigation, she fled to St. Johns, Newfoundland. As the legal drama unfolded, Kuenne began collecting footage from his old home movies and interviewed Bagbys parents, David and Kathleen, for a documentary about his life. ........
