Best film I've seen in years, the two final scenes were heartbreaking, his mom feeling guilty that she told him to take the train was :to: and the shower scene when his daughter knew her dad was gone. We all can see Oscar Grant in us, I won't lie I was teary eyed after seeing this film.

Little late but I caught it last night.

Didn't cry but my chest got tight. Definitely close. Got me real mad. Caught my hand shaking at the end.

Just one of those things that kinda hits home. I know a dozen dudes just like him. Good people, definitely made mistakes, but just trying to look out for their family.

If you haven't already, please get out and support. Very rare that we get a movie with this kind of subject matter from our prospective.

your stars are but dust on my shoes
damn man this left me feeling real empty... I just didn't want it to end like that man. I was feeling like the doctors were going to save Oscar even though this happened over 5 years ago..... great movie, but a real tragedy.

I just caught this today. Solid movie. Michael B came through real good on this. The scene with the dog? The parallels :ohlawd: of his story & the pitbull. End of the movie had me sick as hell. 11 months?! Whitey got this system rigged.

Decatur where its greater
In the interview he did with Oprah he was saying how that scene with the dog and other scene were important to them because it showed the humanity in Oscar Grant which is not normally seen in the media.
