Detroit (2017)

Detroit: Directed by Kathryn Bigelow. With Chris Chalk, Mason Alban, Bennett Deady, Andrea Eversley. Fact-based drama set during the 1967 Detroit riots in which a group of rogue police officers respond to a complaint with retribution rather than justice on their minds.

“The facts, not alternative facts but the facts. Once you have that then the artist comes and tells us, dramatizes, enlightens without distorting the facts. I was sweating when Detroit ended but I needed to go back and check the historical records of the events. The movie is a faithful depiction of the facts with the artistic eye of the amazing Kathryn Bigelow to illustrate them. The film will make you mad, it will desolate you and anger you and force you as an American to ask yourself, how can this possibly be?nDetroit as an artistic venture is a marvel with a cast of fantastic actors. Bravo!”
