Showtime!



The New York Times reports the movie based on EJI's Bryan Stevenson defense of an innocent death row prisoner will premier...on Christmas Day.

JUST MERCY Michael B. Jordan plays the lawyer Bryan Stevenson, who in Alabama in the early 1990s defended Walter McMillian (Jamie Foxx), a man sentenced to death even though, The New York Times wrote in 1993, the state built “a case on suspect testimony and withheld crucial evidence that called that testimony into question.” Brie Larson plays an activist also fighting for McMillian’s exoneration. Destin Daniel Cretton (“Short Term 12”) directed.


     NO word so far on a release date for the Barry Brown/Spike Lee movie in which I have a tiny "starring" role, "Son of The South". It was shot this year, mostly in Montgomery.

UPDATE: IMDB.COM reports Son of The South will open on New Year's Day 2020. I'm seeking confirmation. There is supposed to be a Montgomery premier first.
