Set over the course of two tense days, this explosive ensemble drama examines how racism affects a diverse group of Los Angeles residents. As the lives of such characters as contemplative detective Don Cheadle, district attorney Brendan Fraser and his bigoted wife Sandra Bullock, ignorant cop Matt Dillon, and privileged Hollywood couple Thandie Newton and Terrence Howard collide, they each discover the often tragic consequences of intolerance. With Jennifer Esposito, William Fichtner, Ludacris, Ryan Phillippe, and Larenz Tate; co-written and directed by Paul Haggis. 122 min.
