The Life of David Gale

[FaithS]

David Gale, a highly intelligent university professor, is also a strong and vocal advocate for the elimination of the death penalty.

Ironically, he is first wrongly accused of rape. The charges are dropped by the accuser almost immediately, but he loses his marriage and access to his son, as well as his job.

Later, he is falsely accuses of the rape and murder of another woman, and is convicted and put on death row.

The story is about a reporter's interviews with him as he reviews his past and, eventually, her last minute attempt to prove his innocence.

The ending was a total surprise. I won't spoil if for you.

We're netflix addicts. lol

If you see it, let me know what you think. After I saw the ending, I almost wanted to watch it again, after I knew what I knew, to see if I got even more out of it during a second viewing.
