Racism, the death penalty, and loneliness are the principal themes in this romantic drama: The wife (Halle Berry) of an executed convict (Sean Combs) and the prison guard (Billy
Bob Thornton) who was in charge of his execution become unlikely lovers and find solace, and perhaps even hope, in each other. Also with Heath Ledger, Peter Boyle, Coronji Calhoun and P. Diddy.
Directed by Marc Forster. [R - 1.51]
