TANISHA LAVERNE GRANT INTERVIEWS ACTOR LAKEITH STANFIELD OF "CROWN HEIGHTS" (3252 hits)

Award Winner of the Audience Award: U.S. Dramatic at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival
Written and Directed by Matt Ruskin
Produced by Nnamdi Asomugha, Natalie Galazka, Matt Ruskin
Starring Lakeith Stanfield, Nnamdi Asomugha, Natalie Paul, Bill Camp, Nestor Carbonell, Amari Cheatom

In the spring of 1980, a teenager is gunned down in the streets of Flatbush, Brooklyn.  The police pressure a child witness to identify a suspect.  As a result, Colin Warner, an 18-year-old kid from nearby Crown Heights, is wrongfully convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison. Colin’s childhood friend Carl 'KC' King devotes his life to fighting for Colin’s freedom. He works on appeals, takes loans for lawyer fees and becomes a legal courier to learn the court system. This incredible true story is adapted from the acclaimed This American Life segment by writer/director Matt Ruskin, with Lakeith Stanfield playing Colin Warner and Nnamdi Asomugha as Carl King.
