Hurricane

1:02:00

and finally,
to the awful verdict.

1:02:03

I didn't get a trial...

1:02:05

free from constitutional error
and racial prejudice.

1:02:07

He knows that.
You know it !

1:02:09

That's not helpin' me
in here, Myron.

1:02:12

Look. Look !

1:02:14

I'm innocent.
That's why.

1:02:17

Seven years !
You're goddamn right
it's seven years !

1:02:19

Just get me outta here.
I want a new trial. Okay ?

1:02:25

[ All Chanting ]
The people united
will never be defeated.

1:02:28

The people united
will never be defeated.

1:02:32

The people united
will never be defeated.

1:02:36

The people united--

1:02:38

It shows that
there's still hope.

1:02:42

There is hope for change
in America.

1:02:46

I believe in law and order,

1:02:48

and I believe that everybody
have a right to another trial.

1:02:51

Here comes the story
of the Hurricane

1:02:55

The man the authorities
came to blame

1:02:58

For something
that he never done

1:03:00

[Man]
Miss Ellen Burstyn.

1:03:02

Put in a prison cell
But one time

1:03:05

He could have been
the champion of the world

1:03:15

They ain 't givin 'up.
They said they're gonna
demonstrate again.

1:03:18

Muhammad Ali and Ellen Burstyn
and Bob Dylan, everybody.

1:03:22

That's good, Mae.
Everybody.

1:03:30

Look, Mae, uh,

1:03:33

we've already lost
two trials,

1:03:35

and now they've turned down
my request for an appeal.

1:03:44

I'm sorry, it, uh--
It's over.

1:03:47

It's finished.

1:03:51

And I'm gonna die in here,
Mae, so--

1:03:54

Baby, listen.
There is still a chance.

1:03:56

Now, all we have to do
is hang on.
Listen to me, now.

1:03:58

There's nothin'
to hang on to, Mae.
