Warner Brothers has movie about Michael Brown (Ferguson MO) in the works

Posted by Olog-hai on Sun Jun 25 01:01:16 2017

The Tracking Board

Michael Brown Movie in the Works at Warner Bros. Based on Mother’s Memoir About Ferguson Shooting (Exclusive)

Jeff Sneider, Editor In Chief
June 15, 2017
Warner Bros. is developing a movie about the police killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, as the studio has acquired his mother Lezley McSpadden’s memoir Tell the Truth & Shame the Devil, the Tracking Board has exclusively learned.

Brown was just 18 years old when he was fatally shot by white Ferguson police officer Darren Wilson after reportedly robbing a convenience store on August 9, 2014. The incident exposed racial tensions simmering beneath the surface of the city, where protests and civil unrest quickly erupted, sparking national debate about the relationship between African-American citizens and local law enforcement.

Brown was unarmed at the time of the shooting, but the U.S. Department of Justice found that witnesses who said Brown had his hands up in surrender were not deemed credible, and a St. Louis County grand jury decided not to indict Wilson. The officer was exonerated of criminal wrongdoing by the DOJ, which ruled that Wilson shot Brown in self-defense.

Insiders say that Warner Bros. aims to develop a drama that is tonally and thematically similar to Crash, which won Best Picture in 2005. The studio is currently seeking a writer to adapt the book, which McSpadden co-wrote with novelist Lyah Beth LeFlore.

Simon and Schuster published Tell the Truth & Shame the Devil: The Life, Legacy, and Love of My Son Michael Brown last year, and several studios showed interest in tackling the challenging but important subject matter. Warner Bros. came out on top, and insiders suggest the studio is eager to hire a writer of color to tackle this sensitive project, which would certainly be the smart move.

McSpadden went on to become the founder of The Michael O. D. Brown We Love Our Sons & Daughters Foundation, an organization that advocates for justice, improving health, advancing education, and strengthening families. She also founded its signature program, Rainbow of Mothers, which was established to support mothers who have suffered the devastating loss of a child.

I guess they are going to glorify this dead felon who died as he lived, perpetrating violence on someone else.

no doubt the movie will be titled something like, "Hands Up, Don't Shoot!". Or simply, "Hands Up".

Once he physically resisted arrest with force he committed a felony for which he was never charged.

I'm sure R2 would call Bill Cosby a felon under the same criterion. A credible accusation, but no conviction.

Awesome. I hope they omit his race-motivated attacks and slurs against Asians, while portraying him as a skinny 6 year old boy a la "treyvon".

They're going from a book titled "Tell the truth and shame the devil", so it remains to see exactly how much truth there is going to be.

Yea, then at the end of the movie they're going to issue a call to arms with quotes from Lynch, Obama, Hilarity, that CBS news anchor, etc etc.
