After graduating from Harvard, Bryan Stevenson heads to Alabama to defend those wrongly condemned or those not afforded proper representation. One of his first cases is that of Walter McMillian, who is sentenced to die in 1987 for the murder of an 18-year-old girl, despite evidence proving his innocence. In the years that follow, Stevenson encounters racism and legal and political maneuverings as he tirelessly fights for McMillian's life.

Would have been much better had they cut out the fluff of an hour and made the movie an hour and a half verses almost two and a half hours. Pretty bad how some acted but the question is if parts of this movie were sensationalized such as a strip search of a death row attorney and guns pulled by police for a traffic stop of the defense attorney, which can take away from true events. The dragging of the film at times really took away from the true injustice of those wrongfully convicted. A shame with Jamie Foxx injury, hopefully, he will return to acting one day. eji.org is worth taking a look at and their video with those wrongfully convicted.
