Execution of Justice Movie Review 1999

Staff rating

---

Emily Mann's play focused on the 1978 voluntary manslaughter verdict in the trial of city supervisor Dan White for the deaths of San Francisco Mayor George Moscone (Young) and openly gay elected official Harvey Milk (Coyote). You may remember the infamous "Twinkie Defense." This sporadically compelling cable docudrama delves into the mind of White (Daly) himself.
