Richard Jewell
“There is a bomb in Centennial Park. You have thirty minutes.” The world is first introduced to Richard Jewell as the security guard who reports finding the device at the 1996 Atlanta bombing—his report making him a hero whose swift actions save countless lives. But within days, the law enforcement wannabe becomes the FBI’s number one suspect, vilified by press and public alike, his life ripped apart. Reaching out to independent, anti-establishment attorney Watson Bryant, Jewell staunchly professes his innocence. But Bryant finds he is out of his depth as he fights the combined powers of the FBI, GBI and APD to clear his client’s name, while keeping Richard from trusting the very people trying to destroy him.
Richard Jewell is an honest portrayal @Penguin2222
You can tell this movie did something right when the whole media went after this movie. They criticized one small detail and claimed it was false. The film is merely suggesting something and get the media is always silent on every other film that take a lot of creative liberty. I’m not a Clint Eastwood fan, but I am a fan of American Patriots who do the right thing and it is so humbling to watch and learn about a humble hero whose whole world is crumbling. Stellar cast and solid screenplay. There are a couple times when the film is slow, but it’s realistic which makes it forgivable. This film is for adults and not for kids or anyone else who only want to watch stuff like marvel.

Very interesting, exposes the media for the liars they are. Another win for Clint
This movie. @IrishPirQueen
I’d LOVE to see this film. But I’m not seeing ANY me movie for FIFTEEN dollars. It’s greed– pure and simple.
Great movie @Marcothy
Was there. Great and accurate movie that captured the likeness and media frenzy that took place.
American hero @nicknick14
R.i.P Richard! Another good one by Clint Eastwood! Things like this happen all the time in our judicial system. Crooked cops.
