	Winning Verdict for Attica Drama - 9/17/2001 - Multichannel News
		Actors Alan Alda and Morris Chestnut are the emotional core of Showtime's The Killing Yard, an original movie about the 30-year-old uprising at Attica Correctional Facility and the subsequent cover-up by the authorities.
		John Edland (Arthur Holden) — the medical examiner who did the autopsies on the Attica victims — delivers the most dramatic moment when he reveals that the hostages and others were slain by state-trooper gunfire, not by having their throats slashed by inmates.
		At first, portraying the troopers' recapture of the prison as a chaotic, gunfire-filled flashback sequence near the movie's end seems to be a mistake by director Euzhan Palcy.
