You might want to check out this film if you're in the area, a film reviewed here by The New York Times:  “The Central Park Five revisits two New York nightmares. The first and most famous was the rape and beating of a 28-year-old white woman who, very early on April 20, 1989, was found in Central Park bound, gagged, nearly naked and nearly dead, her head crushed and shirt soaked in her blood. For years she was known only as the Central Park jogger, and her assailants were widely thought to be the five black and Latino teenagers, 14 to 16, who were arrested in the attack. The directors Ken Burns, David McMahon and Sarah Burns argue that the convictions, and the years the defendants served for the crime they were later absolved of, were a second, racially motivated crime."

I have to say I love Ken Burns but had a very mixed reaction to the book by Sarah Burns:  The Central Park Five:  A Chronicle of a City Wilding.  For me, it was well researched but she didn't retell the story in a way that hold my interest.  It's a tragic story, an infuriating story but the human face just didn't come through for me.

I am betting a discussion after the film with Burns, Ogletree and two of the actual accused will certainly put a face to the story.  Check your local listings to see when this film might hit your area.
