| | Extraordinary story of an attempt to stop the death penalty | DRAMA WATCHER 08/21/2010 | | Extremely well-acted, this suspense-filled picture with one of my favorite actors, Kevin Spacey asks the audience to become engaged in the argument in favor of abolishing the death penalty. I have to see it again to see how the story's characters interact to resolve some of my questions regarding sub-plots. The surprise ending will stay with you. It includes and interrelates issues covering death, extortion, divorce, love of friends, child custody, illness in the main story. |
