Synopsis

Deadline is the story of the murder of an African American youth in rural Alabama that has gone uninvestigated, unsolved, and unpunished for almost twenty years. That changes when Nashville Times reporter Matt Harper (Steve Talley) meets an idealistic young blueblood bent on discovering the truth. Harper undertakes the investigation despite the opposition of his publisher, violent threats from mysterious forces, a break-up with his fiancée, and his father's cancer diagnosis.

NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
tracihensley51 this was one of the best movies I've seen one netflix in a very long time .If you like mystery and murder lies and deceit well this one is for you.this is a racial movie that is set back during the time when black and white were segregated and was just a bad time for people of color in the south. I truly am glad that I was not there to have to witness the goings on of how the white were during that time and era in the south and not just the south all over everywhere there is actually racism but the way it went down that night here was just so sad. I do hope that movies like this will bring some healing to the people who had to endure such things.god bless
Alliel319 This film is definitely worth seeing. Good solid crime drama. I was only familiar with Steve Tally from the American Pie movies and similar high school/college comedies. Who knew Steve Tally could pull it off, good for him. This is a great dramatic role for him. And I'm a huge fan of Eric Roberts - great role for him too! It was actually after reading about the Trayvon Martin case that I stumbled across this movie and thought it was so timely. The stories were so similar and Deadline shows a side of reality that often goes ignored. Make sure you check out the film!!
Cole I have to recommend Deadline as a movie you don't want to miss this year. Being based on a true story as well as a book, the story line is excellent & the script was well written. It kept me on the edge of my seat throughout its length. With elements of mystery, action, & even love, the movie flowed wonderfully. Steve Talley & Eric Roberts gave great performances along with the other local Tennessee talent that joined them on screen. I don't think you will be disappointed & I definitely encourage everyone to check this one out when it comes to a city near you. The red carpet experience is also one of a kind & something you sure don't see everyday!
leslihutchins I had the pleasure of seeing this film a few weeks ago at one of its premieres. It was even better than I had expected as I had heard about it several months ago. Being a southerner, I was over anxious to see this movie since it was based on a true story. Eric Roberts & Steve Talley both deliver an excellent performance in this film - very different roles for what we normally see from them on film. It was also wonderful to see a movie with such strong themes woven throughout - like family, race, & redemption. It reminded me of a Time to Kill & The Help. I encourage everyone to take the time to see this movie, but also check out the trailer at deadline film.com. You will not disappointed!
