Editor's Note
Court TV's THE EXONERATED is a conscience-pricking docudrama about six real-life death-row inmates who faced last minute reprieves on the eves of their executions due to newly acquired DNA evidence. Director Bob Balaban (best known for his role as Russell Dalrymple on SEINFELD) assembles a topnotch, star-studded cast for this emotionally harrowing study of social injustice, with Susan Sarandon, Brian Dennehy, Danny Glover, Delroy Lindo, Aidan Quinn, and David Brown, Jr., turning in powerful performances as the wrongly accused.
