Reviewthought it wasn’t going to be very good given the way it started out as a contrived white vs. black themed picture. but beharie (the lead) does a good job of grounding the picture and pulling it together. it turns out to be a good little film about the inherent racism involved in the drug war and the fundamental unfairness of a former texas law that allowed people to be indicted based upon a sole witness’s accusation.
