If you loved Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, try True Crime
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Both films are directed by Clint Eastwood, and they both carry the slow burn mood tag, and they sit in Crime / Mystery territory. If that's the register that drew you to Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What True Crime is
Oakland, dawn. A ringing telephone. Cynical journalist Steve Everett scrambles to cover an execution he now believes is a terrible mistake. Racing against the clock, he juggles sources, family, and his own demons to uncover the truth before midnight. Eastwood’s thriller deftly balances moral reckoning and suspense.
