Sirens (1999 TV Movie)
7/10

Warning: Spoilers
I feel that this film posed a point worth mentioning (checks and balances—as these apply to enforcers of our laws & the associated agencies & departments. This is the true emphasis of this film as it transcends beyond the initial impression that this is a film about racism and interracial romance--proved by the unravelling details.

Without giving away the movie, it is well worth seeing & could serve as a model for research. (Perhaps a later movie spin off/sequel could use this film as a precedent that another of the area's civilians/officers could copycat & show the long-term results of this one.)

I also feel that an irritating failure by the casted experts to explore this point on the grounds of "People on the Behalf of Vincent Morgan" not only made me pay more attention to it but also established the friction of this film & of our justice system: treating officials with higher regard than civilians. An occupation is just another opportunity for doing what is right. This film explored the results of neglectful counsel as given by people in high position who defined the barriers by their (falsely) "absolute" attitudes, closed mindsets, & lack of more answers (without admitting that there could be a different approach that no one has yet to try or popularize) simply because of their years of service of quantities of cases. Quantity does not equal quality.

The flaws in each character gave this film added depth. The fuzzy details towards the end of this film made it more meaningful, and the cast of this film would have done this film even greater justice by briefly expressing their dramatic sides to this film in outtakes (that would not be seen in the film itself) via promotional "previews".
