years before i met the main character in the film, in dialogue with the survivors in dialogue with the human rights community filming every perpetrator i could find across northernry single one of them was boastful. almost all of them would invite me to places where they killed and launch in to simple demonstrations of how they killed and the method of the film allowing them it to demonstrate whatever they had done however they winder. it was not a lurer to get them to open up it was a way to try to analyze their openness, to a action, they appeared to be proud of what they have done, enter boastful. why are though boasting, how do they want to be seen? how do they see themselves in and how does that boasting you were pin a whole regime of fear. that was how the film came about. >> but it goes, again, beyond the boasting, as you just said, and to not just to tell the stories and mildly reenact them they really go heavy duty and reenact a lot of what happened back then. it's just almost impossible to understand as you are watching it that people would do that. >> that process also evolved organically, i started this process of working with the survivors and then

higher accumulations around boston and portions of maine and we even have blizzard warnings that are in effect from the cape all the way off into the northernions. we're looking at 4 to 8 inches in boston. similar out in the cape. pair that with gusty winds. highest accumulations are going to be up the coast of maine and what i see around new york and philadelphia, probably around 2 to 4 inches of accumulation there. by the middle of next week the jet stream lifts to the north. the cold air following it and nice mild air starts to filter in. this could be a problem. we're all going to celebrate milder temperatures. 20 degrees above average but the snow melt will be a big factor. we'll have to watch for flooding at the end of next week. anthony and vinita? >> megan glaros from our chicago station wbbm. thank thanks, megan. >>> forecasters say the snow and flooding that happened in england may be coming. more rain fell on england last month than any january since at least 1766. princes william and harry joined a british work crew yesterday morning handing sandbags to workers. >>> the u.s. takes on russia in men's hockey. we'll have morn that

northern tier of 25 to 35 below low, record low temperatures will once again be challenged. we've got windchill advisories from montana all the way on off to the east coast as far north as maine. this is the second part of the problem. another storm system targeting the west will bring los angeles the most rainfall they have seen in any 24-hour period since about 2011. they're going to see as much as more than 2 inches of rain there. as the storm progresses eastward, it runs into the cold air, then creating the possibility of snow essentially from idaho all the way on off to the east coast. the southern extent of which could potentially be a risk for ice accumulation. we're not talking about a paltry amount of snow with this. we're talking about anywhere from 6 to 12 inches of snow in a swath essentially from the plains all the way on off to the east coast including maybe chicago, new york city, philadelphia, pittsburgh, all under the gun for a possible high accumulation. anthony and norah? >> guess my plan to put the snow shovel away after march 1st isn't going to work. megan glaros, thanks very much. >>> the unusual weather may explain storm clouds for the economy. fed chai
