Plot summary

After growing up during the tumultuous 1960s, ex-Black Panther Marcus returns to his home in Philadelphia in 1976 and reconnects with Pat, the widow of a Panther leader. Marcus befriends Pat's young daughter and attempts to conquer his demons. Interfering with Marcus's good intentions are the neighborhood's continuing racial and social conflicts, as well as old enemies and friends -- both with scores to settle.

A rare sighting of Anthony Mackie in a lead role! Night Catches Us nails its setting of a blue-collar, colored neighborhood where the community is small and tight-knit, however its story fails to grip as much context is not revealed until the final 15 minutes, and we fail to understand why the protagonist is even required to conquer the challenges that the film has him face. The film is helped by a good (not great) performance by Mackie, but overall, despite some really important historical themes, the film somehow feels inconsequential.

Every story has the right to be told

Every story has the right to be told and this story is particular is one of the more important ones. A strong direction and heavy themes make this film, with a complex and revealing story that helps this film stick out from the rest of the Civil Right-themed films. A must see
