Richard Jewell – Opening 13 March 2020

RICHARD JEWELL is based on the true events of the heroic security guard who discovered a suspicious backpack in Centennial Park, initially hailed a hero, only to find his life turned upside down when a false news report by the Atlanta Journal Constitution implicated him as a suspect – kicking off a media firestorm that, day by day, slowly destroyed one man’s character in the eyes of a nation. Jewell was considered the main suspect in a startling case of “trial by media” that was so virulent in its incrimination of him that, through the lens of history, much of the general public doesn’t recall that he was ultimately exonerated after 88 days.

Directed by Clint Eastwood, the suspense drama “Richard Jewell” centres around the events that forever made his name synonymous with that terrible act.
