WHAT THE ACTUAL F***.
i cried like a baby watching this, this was such a difficult watch.
my two biggest criticisms of this movie:
1. the star of this movie is the innocent man who was incarcerated for forced false confession of a murder charge, so when the director took the creative liberty to tell this story from the perspective of a shady lawyer who turned a good one because of this case (and a "good" lawyer turned bad), i feel like it took away the actual re-trial that should have unfortunately been included in the movie.
2. which brings me to point no. 2, the ending i find unsatisfying because the actual outcome of the re-trial is only given to us in the ending credit; i think the movie would have been so much better if the re-trial process is documented in the movie itself, something like Juror 8. i personally would have appreciated it better if the lawyer is an upright one from the start (like the actual lawyer who represented the defendant in the re-trial), and we get to see more of his actual efforts to overcome the investigation stumbling blocks and present new evidence/witness in the court.
i had extremely strong emotional roller coasters watching this. honestly, i have not seen a bigger trash of a detective anywhere in dramaland but this one. he's not a grey character anymore, but honestly a downright satan. NO DETECTIVE IN THEIR RIGHT MIND WOULD FORCE A FALSE MURDER CONFESSION OUT OF SOMEONE IN A SHADY MOTEL SOMEWHERE, INSTEAD OF IN THE POLICE STATION WHAT THE FCKIN HELL.
i have seen some videos about prisoners in the USA who were freed and cleared of their murder charges after a re-trial after the DNA technology has developed, but that's more on the weakness on the growing development of forensic science at the time, rather than a deliberate act of oppression by the investigating officer.
I am so insanely mad that this thing actually happened to someone, because i would not in the wildest of my imagination have believed that this was based on a true story if i wasn't told.
bless all the lawyers who try to correct an injustice by using the law, and my solidarity to all the people who were wrongfully accused of any criminal charges in real life :(
