About this movie

Academy Award nominee Denzel Washington earned a Golden Globe for his powerful performance in this critically acclaimed masterpiece directed by Norman Jewison (In The Heat Of The Night, The Thomas Crown Affair). As popularized worldwide by Bob Dylan's smash song, it's the unforgettable saga of Rubin "Hurricane" Carter, a proud, once-promising prizefighter unjustly convicted of a brutal crime. Locked away and all but forgotten for nearly two decades, Carter's last glimmer of hope rests with the tireless efforts of a small group of supporters who stubbornly refuse to end the fight for his freedom. Also featuring an all-star supporting cast, this landmark motion picture chronicles not only the ultimate victory of a champion, but a stirring triumph for the human spirit. 1999 Buena Vista International
