( Universal ) Richard Attenborough directed this drama set in the 1970s revolving around an editor (Kevin Kline) of a liberal South African paper who becomes friends with anti-apartheid activist Steve Biko (Denzel Washington, in his Oscar-nominated role). After Biko died at age 30 in police custody, the editor writes a book about Biko but must escape the country to publish it. |
