  1. Really!? Since no one can make new and creative content anymore, they have to revert to dramatizing 60 year old realtime events that most of us locally don’t want, or need to relive again. Whatever! The radical activists must need new material to resist law and order. Unless the final message is don’t do this? But I doubt it until it comes out.

    1. That’s a bit of a rant, but I would also bet the criminal is the hero, especially when his victim is a mortgage executive (Boo!)

    2. Kevin, did you forget to take your meds today? Your honest take that a thriller based on a real life event has something to do with “radical activists?”

      Do you know how completely unhinged you sound? To your own good, take a break from the online world and take a long walk, etc, to calm down your overstimulated mind.

  2. It’s a real shame that movies about Indiana and Indianapolis get filmed in ohio and Kentucky because they have state level filming incentives and liason offices and we don’t.

  3. I was in a position at the time to know there were significant roles being played behind the scenes to secure a non-violent resolution by George Martz, chief deputy prosecutor for Marion County, and Jim Young, US Attorney. The issue was whether Kiritsis should be offered immunity from prosecution to get him to release Mr. Hall. George Martz was willing to offer immunity from state prosecution, as a ruse, but AG Griffin Bell, in consultation with Jim Young, responded that the United States does not negotiate under duress, “with a gun at our head,” you might say, literally and figuratively. It was a long, cold, snowy night of intense negotiations. Judge Michael Dugan later presided over the prosecution of Kiritsis when he was ruled to be not guilty based on insanity. In later years, when Dugan was convicted for corruption in an unrelated case, Kiritsis, who had been released from mental treatment by then, showed up at Dugan’s federal sentencing carrying a briefcase and generally creating a palpable sense of lurking trouble. The US Marshals stayed right next to him for the duration of the sentencing hearing, High drama from beginning to end. Sebarker
