After discovering that 13 of 167 death row inmates were innocent, Republican Illinois governor George Ryan lessened sentences of them all at a 2003 press conference. This gripping documentary delves into both Ryan's struggle to come to grips with the moral questions inherent in the death penalty as well as a judicial system which allows criminals--many of whom are minorities--to be condemned to die, even when there is a lack of sufficient evidence. Fascinating and uncompromising, DEADLINE received great acclaim after screenings at the 2003 Sundance film festival. Katy Chevigny and Kirsten Johnson's film was purchased by NBC-TV for airing on the network's Dateline program in July of 2004 after chief executive Robert Wright was impressed by a screening of the film--an almost unheard-of occurrence for an independent documentary.DVD Features:Region (unknown)Keep CaseWidescreen - 1.78Audio: Stereo 2.0 - EnglishAdditional Release Material: Interview - 1.
