Cinema Wednesdays - Jonas Follonier
The violins are a little insistent at the start, but this doesn't detract too much from the overall effect. Actors who are just right, without being out of the ordinary. You don't get the story right the first time; everything moves too fast, and at the same time too slowly. It's in this half-tone cinematic atmosphere that the beginning of The Way of Justice, a film about the death penalty and institutional racism in Alabama - both of which are still with us today. Dialogue, however, quickly captures the viewer's attention and emotion. «A nigger's in charge, and if you ain't, you pay for your mates.» We quickly understand the violence of this injustice, which consists of a simple «double standard» based on skin color.
