This is the account of real-life black activist Medgar Evers, who was gunned down in 1963. It's a stirring courtroom drama spiced up with colorful Mississippi characters drawn from real life, including Assistant District Attorney Bobby DeLaughter, who takes on the case 25 years after the murder, and Byron De La Beckwith, Evers's confessed killer, who is free after two trials ended with hung juries.
When a local newspaper publishes allegations of jury tampering in the Evers trials in 1964, Hinds County prosecutor DeLaughter and his superior, Ed Peters, face enormous, polarized pressure from those who want Beckwith brought to justice and those who think the past should be left alone. -- Desson Howe
