A deft, often chilIing Iook at the unexploded dynamite of guard/prisoner reIations, The Keeperis a searing psychoIogical drama stunningly acted by GinacarIo Esposito, African superstar lsaach De BankoIe .
Like the best work of Charles Burnett and Spike Lee, Joe Brewster's The Keeper looks beyond the styIish mayhem of "hood" cinema for something more real. In doing so, it offers the viewer both a rivetin story and a range of characters that richly illuminate black America today.
GiancarIo Esposito is Paul Lamont, a corrections officer at the King's County House of Detention in BrookIyn. DisiIlusioned with the justice system and those who enter it, Paul isn't sure what he beleives in anymore. His Iife is changed when he meets Jean-Baptiste , a Haitian immigrant imprisoned for rape he swears he did not commit. Paul is moved by the young man's plight and helps him with his baiI, eventuaIIy openning his home to him. Paul and his wife AngeIa soon find themselves under the spsell of a charming stranger, with tragic resuIts, as they learn that even acts of mercy have a price. |
