David Gale (Kevin Spacey) is a man who has tried hard to live by his principles, but in a bizarre twist of fate, this devoted father, popular professor and respected death penalty opponent finds himself on Death Row for the rape and murder of fellow activist Constance Hallaway (Laura Linney). With only three days left before his scheduled execution, Gale agrees to give reporter Bitsey Bloom (Kate Winslet) the exclusive interview she's been chasing. She soon uncovers more than she ever imagined possible.
Alan Parker, the director of the death-penalty drama The Life of David Gale, likes his acting big, his edits hard and his stories slick. A filmmaker with a penchant for highbrow material and an instinct for lowbrow thrills, Parker is a consummate journeyman and a relentless huckster (like a number of major British directors, he started in advertising), and it's a rare one of his movies that doesn't entertain. Even when they're as deadly serious as Parker's earlier prison-house thriller Midnight Express or Mississippi Burning, his revisionist take on the civil-rights movement, these are films in which no one and nothing is beyond exploitation.

Kate Winslet provides clear justification for all the plaudits she receives with, in my opinion, her best acting performance yet.
It's hard to see how this film could be improved ...
Life of David Gale, The
Glib, bombastic and muddled drama, anti-intellectual in tone, that takes itself, but not its subject-matter, very seriously.
Life of David Gale, The
Had Dead Man Walking been written by the sleazy murder mystery specialist Joe Eszterhas, it would probably turn out something like this. Director Alan Parker's previous attempts to merge social commentary with thriller elements have been excellent, but here the story — about the fictional David Gale, a respected academic and opponent of the death penalty who's awaiting execution — never quite catches fire. It does, however, benefit from the astute casting of Kevin Spacey as the intellectual on death row who agrees to give an exclusive interview to tenacious reporter Kate Winslet. The events leading up to his conviction for murder are related via flashback, wh...
