A Murder of Crows

In the wake of a career-ending scandal, disgraced lawyer Lawson Russell moves to Key West, where he befriends aging novelist Christopher Marlowe. After letting Russell borrow his latest manuscript, Marlowe dies of a heart attack. When Russell publishes the dead man's manuscript under his own name, he makes the best-seller list—and unwittingly becomes the prime suspect in the investigation of a grisly multiple homicide.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Really like this film, it's criminally overlooked as far as I'm concerned. Cuba Gooding plays a lawyer who gets disbarred shortly after he lets his conscience get the better of him and he moves to Key West Florida, hoping to start a writing career. Once there, he meets and old man who happens to have written a damn fine novel. Ahhh, I don't want to reveal more, but from that point on things get very interesting.This thriller has a genuinely original plot and is very well written. The plot twist isn't easily spotted and will definitely have viewers guessing for a long time. It's fast paced and well directed by Rowdy Herrington, who's really a director to look for (made another little known James Spader flick that's very good as well).I've always like Cuba Gooding and he does a good job in the lead, proving he can well handle dramatic parts as well (if not better) than comedic ones. Tom Berenger does well, as always, in a relatively small part as a tough detective.It's a rare thing these days that a film, particularly a thriller, comes up with a really fresh and original idea and executes it well. A Murder of Crows is a suspenseful and thoroughly entertaining thriller that deserves to be better known.

Just as the leading actors (Cuba Gooding and Tom Berenger) masquerade as A-list stars, the plot and its direction masquerade as a "thriller." If you aren't paying attention, you might be duped into thinking this is a good movie, but as the old myth about Chinese food goes, you'll be starving again an hour later.Gooding plays an attorney who is disbarred for snitching out a guilty client as in "And Justice For All," who is then framed for a murder and tormented by the killer and the cops throughout. If only the audience had been as fortunate.Those who enjoy seeing steroetypical racism on screen as a means for enlightening the audience will be proud.

***SPOILERS*** "A Murder of Crows" starts off interesting enough with New Orleans defense attorney Lawson Russell sitting in his home and just about to be assassinated by this guy dressed in a Devil costume on Fat Tuesday evening. Russell is told to get of the case he's presiding on that involves New Orleans defending blue-blood Truman Parks III. The mask man is told by Russell that if he refuses to defend Parks he can kiss his career in law good-by; this seemed to have caused the killer to change his mind in doing in Russell.Never the less Russell purposely tries to lose the case for his client Parks and is then disbarred from practicing law for life. Lawson Russell then goes to live in his late fathers home in Key West to start a new career as a writer and part time tourist guide. It's there that he meets this old eccentric Christopher Marlow who after having a ride with him on his boat gives his this manuscript "A Murder of Crows" to read and tell him later what he thinks of it. It must have been a very good story since Russell read in overnight and when he came back to Marlow's hotel room he finds out that he died the night before. Deciding to have the book "A Murder of Crows" published under his name it soon becomes an overnight best seller and Russell is all over the press as one of the most talented young writers in America. But the book is more then just a good novel what it's about, the murder of five prominent defense attorneys, is true and true enough for the police to suspect that Russell murdered them! In the fact that he knows things about the murders that only the killer who murdered them and the police who investigated the case knew.Cuba Goding Jr. as fugitive Lawson Russell was like a bouncing ball on the screen bouncing from New Orleans to Key West and back with the police in both those cities, and all points in-between, not being able to catch him. He seemed to be invisible where almost no one recognized him! Which is very improbable with him being wanted for five murders and having his picture in all the papers and on the TV news and also being the author of the biggest best seller in the country! Looking for the elusive Christopler Marlow Russell comes across a phone connection in New Orleans that somehow puts him, Marlow, there and in Key West Russell soon finds out that the man was a fraud and never existed! And that he, and his cohorts, somehow set up and framed Russell for the murders that Marlow wrote in his book. It would have been so easy for Russell to prove his innocence by proving that he wasn't in the places, that were all across the southern US, where the murders in the book "A Murder of Crows" were committed. Also how did Marlow know that Russell would later have burnt the manuscript, that would have proved Russell's innocence, that he gave him and later had it publish under his name implicating him in the murders? Tom Berenger as New Orleans Det. Clifford DuBose did his best to be over-the-top in his actions as a gong-ho type who liked to do things "His Way". So much so that he kept the FBI out of the loop and almost caused the case of the "dead defense attorneys" to go cold. And thus have the killer get away due to his selfish and unprofessional actions.The ending was just too much to take taking away any believability at all that the movie had left up until then with Russell ending up just like the clients of the five defense lawyers did in the book "A Murder of Crows" as well as Truman Parks III in real life.
