Cornered by the DEA, convicted New York drug dealer Montgomery Brogan reevaluates his life in the 24 remaining hours before facing a seven-year jail term.
"Unexpected and unusual production in Spike Lee's filmography. After all, the feature film, based on David Benioff's homonymous novel, moves away from the typical racial issue flags of his filmography (at least on the surface), although it maintains its hyperactive visual style. You can recognize the filmmaker in the aesthetics, after all. In the plot, meanwhile, there is a poetic story of guilt and acceptance with morally complex characters that allow a demonstration of talent from Edward Norton ('American History X'), Rosario Dawson ('Total Control'), Philip Seymour Hoffman ('Magnolia'), Anna Paquin ('The Piano') and Brian Cox ('Adaptation'). All with powerful performances."
