Last Light

Denver Bayliss (Kiefer Sutherland, who directed) went into Soledad as a teen for petty theft...and the violence he learned inside led to his murder of a staffer and a transfer to death row. Now, he’s under the supervisory guard of disgraced ex-cop Fred Whitmore (Forest Whitaker), who finds a bond with his doomed charge as he struggles with his past and present. Powerful, no-holds-barred look at life behind bars also stars Kathleen Quinlan, Lynne Moody, Amanda Plummer, Clancy Brown. 104 min. Standard; Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital stereo.
