REACH: Dead Man Walking Dead Man Walking was being filmed in the St. Thomas/Irish Channel section of New Orleans when a group of Unitarian Universalists arrived for an orientation and anti-racism walking tour sponsored by the People's Institute for Survival and Beyond. Political activists often cite Dead Man Walking as a film about capital punishment or the story of one religious person's commitment to end the death penalty.

Sister Helen Prejean: The Real Woman Behind Dead Man Walking - April 1996 Issue of St. Anthony Messenger Magazine Online Dead Man Walking, the film starring Susan Sarandon and Sean Penn, is a contender at the Academy Awards. Sister Helen was invaluable during filming of Dead Man Walking, says Sarandon, "in all the specifics...little details here and there of what happened with these guys or with the families."

The DVD Journal: Dead Man Walking The resulting film, Robbins' second, is Dead Man Walking, adapted from the book by Sister Helen Prejean, recounting her relationship with Louisiana death row inmate Matthew Poncelot. Unusually for a Hollywood picture, Dead Man Walking is also deeply spiritual. Despite Prejean's status as a leading advocate against capital punishment, Robbins' film is incredibly balanced, gut-wrenchingly moving, and one of the best films of the last 20 years. www.dvdjournal.com /reviews/d/deadmanwalking.shtml   (594 words)

Review: Dead Man Walking Dead Man Walking refers to what the people on death row are called as they take that final walk towards their execution. Sarandon's Catholic nun is at the focal point of Dead Man Walking -- and it's a performance to match her co-star's for aptness and intensity. And Dead Man Walking doesn't attempt to portray him as a wrongly accused innocent man or someone misunderstood by society. movie-reviews.colossus.net /movies/d/dead_man.html   (725 words)

Dead Man Walking (1995): Reviews Dead Man Walking drops a massive, writhing knot of sorrow in your lap and then doesn't tell you what to do with it. Their (Sarandon, Penn) performances and Robbins' drive to ask questions without offering easy answers make Dead Man Walking a thought-provoking drama not to be missed or dismissed. There are no easy answers on death row, and Dead Man Walking makes this painfully, powerfully clear. www.metacritic.com /video/titles/deadmanwalking   (882 words)

Dead Man Walking This said, however, I would have no hesitation is recommending Dead Man Walking to anyone with a mind to see a film which is profoundly moving, intelligent and restores faith in the human spirit. Dead Man Walking offers views from both sides of the argument, with the families of the victims baying for blood and the family of Poncelet unable to see the horrors of his actions. Sister Helen, on the other hand, is not a typical nun - her lack of a Carmelite habit comes as a shock to the prison chaplain and her free way of speaking endears her to many. www.moviemusicuk.us /deadwalk.htm   (758 words)

Dead Man Walking Dead Man Walking is the story of Matthew Poncelet (Sean Penn), a racist rapist and murderer who is serving his final days on death row. Director and screenwriter Tim Robbins accomplishes a difficult task in Dead Man Walking: he expresses a heartfelt opinion on the death penalty without seeming either preachy or one-sided. The true winner here is Sean Penn. He shows that Matthew Poncelet is a stupid and violent man, but a man nonetheless. www.cinematter.com /movie.php3?deadmanwalking   (266 words)

Dead Man Walking I can imagine someone still being in favor of the death penalty after finishing Sister Helen Prejean's Dead Man Walking, the basis for the new film adapted and directed by Tim Robbins; but I can't imagine anyone having any legal, rational, practical, or moral ground left for that belief.

SALON Reviews:Dead Man Walking, page 2 contrast, "Dead Man Walking," Tim Robbins' remarkable film about convicted murderer Matthew Poncelet and the nun who comes into his life as it nears its state-sanctioned end, possesses that rarest of qualities: moral humility. In its piercing spiritual simplicity, "Dead Man Walking" recalls Dickens, the great artist of spiritual regeneration (who would probably be regarded by some of today's self-assured moralists as the original bleeding heart). Sister Prejean, lying dazed on a bed, saying in confusion, "Oh, it's so bizarre, a man's going to be killed tomorrow in front of me." It is her confusion, not her conviction, that touches the heart, just as it is Robbins' moral uncertainty that gives his film its moral credibility. www.salon.com /06/reviews/dead2.html   (517 words)

'Dead Man Walking' (R) Dealing with an issue as volatile and complex as the death penalty is a tricky proposition, and in the hands of another filmmaker, "Dead Man Walking," which is based on the 1993 bestseller by Sister Helen Prejean, might easily degenerate into a simple-minded polemic. "Dead Man Walking" asks whether a man like Poncelet, who has been found guilty of causing inhuman suffering and who appears without either remorse or conscience—who appears to lack even the minimal requisites of a human being—deserves to be treated like one. During the course of the film, Poncelet is transformed from a monster into a man. But while the sister's journey may be shorter in moral terms, it is no less harrowing, and Sarandon shows the price she pays for every step. www.washingtonpost.com /wp-srv/style/longterm/movies/videos/deadmanwalking.htm   (390 words)
