FREEDOMLAND
Late one night in a working class New Jersey suburb, a bloodied
woman staggers mute and dazed into the emergency room at the
Dempsy Medical Center. After treatment for shock and hysteria,
Brenda Martin (Julianne Moore) recounts to Dempsy police
detective Lorenzo Council (Samuel L. Jackson) a horrific tale of
being carjacked on the isolated strip of undeveloped land that
divides Dempsy's urban housing projects from the blue collar town
of Gannon, where she lives. She claims she was forced out of her
car by a black man, but during the interrogation Council senses
he's not getting the whole story. Only after hours of questioning
does Brenda finally break down and confess that her four-year-old
son, Cody, was asleep in the back seat of the stolen car. Led by
activist Karen Collucci (Edie Falco), members of the communities
of Dempsy and Gannon unite in a search for the missing child, but
the criminal investigation into the alleged kidnapping by a
suspect who is presumed to be a local from the projects soon
ignites long-simmering racial tensions between the two towns.
Vitals: Director: Joe Roth. Stars: Samuel L. Jackson, Julianne
Moore, Edie Falco, Ron Eldard, William Forsythe, Aunjanue Ellis,
Anthony Mackie, LaTanya Richardson. 2006, CC, MPAA rating: R, 113

by playfully representing the 1960s sexual revolution through a

mixing the naughtiness of a peep show with Broadway sensibilities
and a catchy rock score performed by a live band. This is a
filmed version of an original cast performance, with
sidesplitting and body-baring skits concocted by the top writers
of the time, including John Lennon, Sam Shepard, Jules Feiffer
