Well done propaganda film

Warning: Spoilers
Acting and storyline very well done except for ending. Film shows chamberlain face down being shot. Official report states he went after officers with a knife. That should have been detailed for accuracy. In watching the movie it was clear to me that the narrative that he was killed because he was black was false. If he was white it would have been the same result. Except that the police would have busted down the door sooner. They delayed their entry because he was black. In the movie the police did not allow relatives to intervene. That was criminal on their part if true. Interesting propaganda movie. The knife shown in the movie was about 1/3 the size of the actual knife he used per the ending credits!!! An inconvenient fact. His death was the end of the movie. They should have shown the inquiry that followed. I didn't believe the ending. More info was needed but you don t get that in a propaganda movie.
