Who Bombed Birmingham?
1990
104 Min
This thriller re-creates the true story of six Irish men wrongly convicted for a devastating IRA bombing in Birmingham, England, in 1974, and the dogged attempts of British television journalists to prove their innocence. John Hurt stars as Chris Mullin, the lead voice in exposing both the police brutality that resulted in the men’s dubious confessions and the British judicial system’s reluctance to acknowledge the miscarriage of justice.
