|
Hank Grotowski (Billy Bob Thornton), a bigot and chief prison guard with strong convictions in his own notions, is about to bring a man to his execution with his son, Sonny (Heath Ledger), who also is a guard at the prison. The man they are about to bring to the electric chair is Lawrence Musgrove (Sean 'P. Diddy' Combs) and he is terrified of dying. Sonny shows empathy for Musgrove and reacts strongly before the execution, which his father Hank loathed. Hank displays his disgust for his sons behavior and this triggers a series of events that initiates some questioning of Hank's convictions. The cinematic experience is a first class drama with profound views on social interactions and the resulting impacts. |
