Dead Man Walking
Directed by Mario J. Ricciardi
An agent of a nameless corporation embarks on a journey across the Midwest filled with reflection, danger, and echoes of his past to deliver legal documents to a mysterious purchaser. The catch? These seemingly mundane documents just may hold cosmic implications. From TMDB

Sarandon & Penn debate accountability & redemption in exquisitely nuanced performances. #filmsky 📽

neutral · AI labelView post →‘Knives Out: Dead Man Walking’ is an important movie. Yes it’s a really good movie in the series as well but even more than it being good it’s very important for the time we live in. I think the rest of Hollywood should take note in how stories should get told. This is the way. Subtle but effective

positive · AI labelView post →I encourage anyone who is anti-death penalty to follow @sisterhelen.org (pictured) here on Bluesky. One the main characters in the film Dead Man Walking starring Sean Penn was based on her, and the work she does. She has profound experience comforting people on death row. #AbolishDeathPenalty

neutral · AI labelView post →It takes a talented filmmaker to make a movie like Dead Man Walking. The condemned killer wants cheap grace. He doesn’t get it. It takes talent to get the character there believably. 4/

neutral · AI labelView post →Kamala Harris said during an interview that the death penalty has never deterred crime, because nobody ever stops to consider if they'll be put to death before they murder someone. I was pro capital punishment until I heard that. Also, the movie Dead Man Walking had me very conflicted.

neutral · AI labelView post →I haven't seen that, but I did see Dead Man Walking. That film also takes an anti death penalty stance, but Sean Penn's character is still guilty. The execution scene repeatedly cuts to Sean Penn 🍇ing and murdering his victims. The film doesn't cheat.
positive · AI labelView post →Dead Man Walking, which isn’t a horror movie but the music is creepy & moody AF
neutral · AI labelView post →Dead Man Walking, but not as in the 1995 crime drama with Susan Sarandon and Sean Penn, but as in the 1988 action b-movie with Wings Hauser and Jeffrey Combs where Jeff's character stumbles around like a baby deer the whole movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →Relistening to the Dead Man Walking #soundtrack for a thing; it had an unexpectedly pivotal influence on my life when I saw the #film aged 21. My god it's a work of genius. I'd forgotten. Incredibly powerful performances by some of the greatest country artists. But I'm listening to it for #Nusrat.
positive · AI labelView post →Remember the movie The Green Mile? About Death row inmates in the 1930s? They would shout out “Dead Man Walking”… that’s tRump but “sleeping
neutral · AI labelView post →I think about Susan Sarandon a lot because, like many people who discovered their queer identity in college, when I saw one of her films in particular (from a year starting in 19- and ending in -5), it inspired certain transsexual thoughts. Of course, for me, that movie was "Dead Man Walking."

How long before Rethuglikkklans finally get that they shot themselves in both feet when they hitched their wagons to him?
neutral · AI labelView post →What his favorite film? "Dead Man Walking"
neutral · AI labelView post →Dead Man Walking, 1995, I was 31, emerging from a year of not watching many movies after my mom died. I'd read about capital punishment since Gilmore in '77 and was definitely not pro-cap, but I did not understand why I was anti-cap until the film, and surprisingly it was not a religious reason.
positive · AI labelView post →This is great. Have not heard this version before. I first heard this song performed by Eddie Vedder and Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan on the wonderful soundtrack to the movie, Dead Man Walking. Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan's collaboration with Michael Brook, Night Song, is worth finding.
