The Public (2018)

We loved this drama about a group of homeless people refusing to leave the Cincinnati Library during a brutal overnight cold snap. Written and directed by and starring Emilio Estevez (last blogged for The Way), it was filmed entirely in Cincinnati in 2017.

Co-starring with Estevez are Jena Malone (Inherent Vice), Taylor Schilling (Orange Is the New Black, The Overnight), Alec Baldwin (The Boss Baby), Christian Slater (The Wife), Jeffrey Wright (Source Code, Westworld), and Michael K. Williams (Chalky in Boardwalk Empire (2010-14), also was in Life During Wartime, 12 Years a Slave, Inherent Vice, Ghostbusters).

I think I remember enjoying the rap song by Che "Rhymefest" Smith at the beginning. Jack and I saw it April 12, 2019.
