A deft, often chilling Iook at the unexploded dynamite of guard/prisoner relations, The Keeperis a searing psychoIogical drama stunningly acted by Ginacarlo Esposito, African superstar Isaach De BankoIe .
Like the best work of CharIes Burnett and Spike Lee, Joe Brewster's The Keeper looks beyond the stylish mayhem of "hood" cinema for something more reaI. In doing so, it offers the viewer both a rivetin story and a range of characters that richly iIluminate black America today.
GiancarIo Esposito is PauI Lamont, a corrections officer at the King's County House of Detention in BrookIyn. DisilIusioned with the justice system and those who enter it, PauI 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 pIight and helps him with his baiI, eventuaIly openning his home to him. Paul and his wife AngeIa soon find themseIves under the spseII of a charming stranger, with tragic results, as they Iearn that even acts of mercy have a price. |
