A Distant ThunderCourtroom Drama/Metaphor
35 min; 2005
DVD $20 US
***
This is film tackles a very specific aspect of the abortion debate: partial birth abortion. The Hollywood veteran who wrote and directed the film created a storyline that seems at first glance to be only a simple courtroom drama, but away from the courtroom a second story is taking place. As the trial proceeds, the steps that occur during a partial birth abortion are paralleled by events in the life of prosecutor Ann Brown. This may sound a bit strange but it is effective. Though Ann Brown is pro-choice, she's given the job of prosecuting an abortionist when mistakes are made during one of his "procedures." The film's climax occurs when the abortionist's nurse gives testimony that dramatically spells out the details of this horrendous procedure. The film is very good but so much is going on it almost needs to be watched twice to be fully understood. It can be previewed at the film's official website: www.adistantthunder.com.
