The movie is pretty good. I thought that this story would best be used as a morality play. Showing the virtuous and noble attorney who intentionally walks into darkness and pays the ultimate price for it. However, the beginning of the film only showed the terrible life the main character was living and how he had to change strategies to adapt or survive. I think this was a mistake. It would have been far more effective to show Roman him as a good man, almost too good who has failings and failings and is almost forced into accepting darkness. The story tried to do that but didn’t quite hit the mark. Instead it showed Roman as being a civil rights activist who is kind of a joke in today’s world. Misused effort in my view. However, the final act, I thought, was pretty well done. The way that Roman and George played off each other was interesting and engaging. I imagine there will be some who take issue with the a white man finishing a black mans work and in a way being a savior of the cause. A common trope that should be done away with. I didn’t really like it but I suppose for white audiences that will play rather well.
