The acting and cinematography was good. I however, was quite dismayed to see real historical figures put into a fictional screenplay. One example, Stagecoach Mary. Real woman. Had a life that was quite a bit more interesting. In my opinion, than the fictionalized Mary. I would have LOVED to see Zazzie portray the real Mary. There is no historical information indicating that Mary, or several other of these actual people the characters were named after. We're in fact criminal. As portrayed in this film. Why? Why is it necessary to make them criminals. They were colorful, interesting. And most were honorable ... Sad portrayal

This was a beautiful crafted, well acted, movie. The movie stays very close to the real account. Educational,and informative. The cast was outstanding. The irony of this being in the same town where the author of To Kill A Mockingbird, is woven throughout the film. While people turn a blind eye to injustice and racism, they then proudly ask if the young attorney has seen the Mockingbird Museum Courthouse. Brie Larson is smart and funny and does a tremendous job. Jamie Fox turns in yet another fabulous performance. He has become a incredible actor. While this may not be a unique premise for a movie, the little touches....showing the larger impact on the family "when they sent Daddy to prison, it was like they sent us all, the impact on the community, and the impact on the prisoners. This is a much watch folm.
