The Public
A bitter arctic blast lasting days forces the homeless patrons of the Cincinnati Public Library to stage a protest occupying the third floor because there are no more room in the emergency shelters. However, this nonviolent sit-in escalates into a standoff with the D.A. & local riot police while media tries to hype up the situation. This inspirational film about the plight of homeless was produced, written, directed, & starring Emilio Estevez. The outstanding supporting cast ensemble includes Alec Baldwin, Christian Slater, Gabrielle Union, Jeffery Wright, Taylor Schilling, Micheal K. Williams, & Jenna Malone. This is a thought provoking multifaceted film with a creative script & a sense of humor. It is the type of film many will overlook or avoid just because it features the homeless. But if you give it a try, you may be pleasantly surprised.
Alien gives it 3½ “The Grapes of Wrath” stars out of 4.
