Geri is another TV documentary which showed the roller-coaster career of the former Spice Girl, and it includes a very frank interview with her. Different from the view of male in the Home from the Hill, Molly Dineen acted as both the director and the film maker. This is a great challenge for Molly Dineen. The 90 minute movie Geri records the experience of Geri, one of the members of the former choir group (Dineen 1999). And the reasons and feeling of leaving the singing group.

Because in the view of most people, Dineen, M was good at presenting the scenes about battles and broad scenes, and it may be hard to bring some common scenes to documentary. In fact, its is not a proper description. Bruzzi, S. said, there is a special authenticity in the documentary and performance of Molly Dineen (Bruzzi 2011). People often don’t see the role in the neutral interview. Therefore, Molly Dineen introduced the new way of neutral interview in the documentary. It is a great success and it makes audience to feel and see the real character of  Geri in a familiar way. The characters are shown in a full and complete way among the audience.
