In 1982 a reporter visiting Levy County in Florida noticed a lack of black residents. So he asked questions and a long-ago tragedy came to light. John Singleton directs Jon Voight and Ving Rhames in this powerful true drama. It is January 1 1923 in Rosewood but in this largely black town built on family faith and hard work hopes for the new year abruptly end. In a few harrowing nights a white mob razes Rosewood into oblivion. As the rampage gains cataclysmic force a heroic World War I veteran (Rhames) and a shopkeeper (Voight) join forces. Dozens of terrified women and children have fled into nearby swamps. Somehow they must be led to safety.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: DRAMA UPC: 085391163244 Manufacturer No: 116324
