Would you watch the same story from two different POVs?

Ive always wondered if this would fly or has been attempted. The same story told from the antagonist and protagonist POVS in two separate feature films, each sympathetic to the primary character.
Release them the same day or a year apart.
Reading an article about the Hunt got me thinking about it again.
Tell the Elites side and tell the Deplorables side.

Letters from Iwo Jima/Flags of Our Fathers sort of did this.
Tons of individual films do it, obviously. Rashomon was the first, I believe.

Timecode does something similar. It showed four separate continuous shots that all ended up at the same place. You could tell from the audio which to focus on,

Sleeping Beauty/Maleficent definitely tell different sides of the same story.

Before the Devil Knows You're Dead did this a bit and it was really cool.

A number of films have used this narrative technique, and it can be quite effective.

Not quite the same but the books Enders Game and Enders Shadow tell the same story from two points of view. Not a protagonist/antagonist but more of a lead/understudy kind of thing. I really enjoyed both.

different sides of the same story
The obscure Brando movie The Nightcomers (1971) concerns the caretaker who is dead at the beginning of The Turn of the Screw (filmed w/Deborah Kerr as The Innocents in 1961)
There's some Julia Roberts movie that tells the story of Jeckyll & Hyde from the POV of his maid

I'd watch a movie about Professor Hathaway's, from Real Genius, point of view.
Maybe he had reasons to believe that laser was going to be a necessary deterrent.

They do it with reality Tv all the time. Flip back an forth from CNN and Fox on any given night. It’s quite amazing actually.

I was going to post this. I thought I wouldn't like the same story being told twice, but it was quite clever.

I always wanted a retelling of Harry Potter from the POV of Neville Longbottom or Draco Malfoy.

The thread reminded me of this, although it may not be exactly the same thing.
The Norman Conquests
The Norman Conquests
quote:
The Norman Conquests is a trilogy of plays written in 1973 by Alan Ayckbourn. Each of the plays depicts the same six characters over the same weekend in a different part of a house. Table Manners is set in the dining room, Living Together in the living room, and Round and Round the Garden in the garden.
quote:
Each play is self-contained, and they may be watched in any order. Some of the scenes overlap, and on several occasions a character's exit from one play corresponds with an entrance in another. Similarly, noise and commotion in one room can sometimes be heard by characters in another.
