-Denzel
Washington
The
inspirational
true
story
of
boxer
Rubin
"The
Hurricane"
Carter,
who
was
wrongfully
convicted
of
murder
in
1966.
Told
in a
series
of
flashbacks,
Washington
immerses
himself
in
the
role
of
Carter
with
a
charged,
intense
passion.
The
story
jumps
around
in
time,
from
Carter's
troubled
childhood,
to
his
arrest
in
1966,
to
his
fruitless
appeals,
settling
in
1983,
when
a
group
of
three
white
adults
and
a
black
teenager
dedicate
their
lives
to
freeing
him.
Jewison's
assured
direction
keeps
these
stories
from
getting
jumbled
and
blurring
together.
Even
in
flashbacks,
the
plot
moves
forward
dramatically,
to
its
eventual
rousing
conclusion.
Based
on
the
novels
THE
16TH
ROUND
by
Carter
and
LAZARUS
AND
THE
HURRICANE
by
Chaiton
and
Swinton.
