The Corner (Miniserie) (2-disc)

FRÅN SKAPAREN AV “THE WIRE”! Every city in America has a "corner". To parents, it's a place their children should avoid. To cops, it's the front line on what has become known as the "war on drugs". But to the addicts who go there, it's the most vital piece of real estate in their desperate day-to-day lives. THE CORNER is based on the nonfiction book "The Corner: A Year in the Life of an Inner-City Neighborhood", by Baltimore-based journalists David Simon and Ed Burns. Acclaimed actor Charles S. Dutton, himself from a Baltimore neighborhood not unlike THE CORNER’s, directs the miniseries, which chronicles a year at the corner through the eyes of 15-year-old DeAndre McCullough, and his parents Fran and Gary.
