Captive (2015)

On March 11, 2005, Brian Nichols escapes from the Fulton County courthouse in Atlanta, during his trial involving a rape case. In the process of the escape he murders the judge presiding over his trial, Rowland Barnes, as well as court reporter Julie Brandau. He also shoots Sergeant Hoyt Teasley while escaping from the courthouse, and then later kills ICE Special Agent David G. Wilhelm, who was off-duty at his home. Nichols becomes the subject of a citywide manhunt. His frantic escape brings him to the apartment of Ashley Smith, a single mother and recovering methamphetamine addict, whom he holds hostage. Smith gets through the time by being inspired by Rick Warren’s best-selling book The Purpose Driven Life while Nichols searches for redemption. As she reads aloud, Smith and her would-be killer come to a crossroads..Awards: 3 nominationsBudget: $2,000,000 (estimated)Worldwide Gross: $2,801,508Soundtrack: Sinkin Drinkin Fits (Music & Lyrics by Jessy Moss (as Jessica T Moss) and Walton Gagel)Jerry JamesonKate Mara, David Oyelowo, Mimi Rogers2015-09-18 (United States, Mexico)tt3268668
