Long before he sat on the United States Supreme Court or claimed victory in Brown v. Board of Education, Thurgood Marshall (Chadwick Boseman) was a young rabble-rousing attorney for the NAACP. The new motion picture, MARSHALL, is the true story of his greatest challenge in those early days – a fight he fought alongside attorney Sam Friedman (Josh Gad), a young lawyer with no experience in criminal law: the case of black chauffeur Joseph Spell (Sterling K. Brown), accused by his white employer, Eleanor Strubing (Kate Hudson), of sexual assault and attempted murder.
Insider’s tip: “One of the freshest and most entertaining films of the year” (Calvin Wilson, St. Louis Post-Dispatch). Moira Macdonald, The Seattle Times, adds: “Marshall is a handsome, old-fashioned film about a real-life hero, with a message of equality and justice that always bears repeating.” James Berardinelli, ReelViews: “By limiting the film’s time frame, the narrative is allowed to breathe and, as a result, we get a distinct snapshot not only of the main character but of the setting that resulted in his becoming historically important.”
