Fruitvale Station

On New Year’s Eve 2008/09, a 22-year-old black named Oscar Grant III was, while restrained, shot and killed by transit police in California’s Bay area.  Although viewers of this movie are informed of the terrible outcome of this true story, this movie is a wonderful and sad recounting (based on phone calls and text messages) of the last 24 hours in this man’s life.  Impressive acting.
