Bir Film Bir Kare #113 – Black Mass (2015)

[zamankaybolmaz]

O hırsız çocuğun suratına geçirdiğin için başın belaya falan girmedi. Girmez. Başın belaya o hırsız çocuğun suratına diğer herkesin önünde vurduğun için girdi. Buradan çıkartacağın ders şu: Önemli olan ne yaptığın değil. Ne zaman ve nerede yaptığın. Kime veya kiminle yaptığın.

Black Mass / Kara Düzen

So apparently Jay Johnston, the voice actor who performs as Jimmy Pesto (Sr.) on Bob's Burgers, took part in the Jan. 6th insurrection. Oy. First Jim Caviezel lost his damn mind, now this.

On a hot summer night in the late 1980s, in the Boston neighborhood of Roxbury, a twelve-year-old African-American girl was sitting on a mailbox talking with her friends when she became the innocent victim of gang-related gunfire. Amid public outcry, an immediate manhunt was on to catch the murderer, and a young African-American man was quickly apprehended, charged, and -- wrongly -- convicted of the crime. Dick Lehr, a former reporter for the Boston Globe's famous Spotlight Team who investigated this case for the newspaper, now turns the story into Trell, a page-turning novel about the daughter of an imprisoned man who persuades a reporter and a lawyer to help her prove her father's innocence. What pieces of evidence might have been overlooked? Can they manage to get to the truth before a dangerous character from the neighborhood gets to them?
