Has anyone seen the movie Detroit which was released a couple weeks ago?

Takes place during 1967 race riots and focusing on police abuses which occurred at the Algiers motel.

No, but maybe later when it hits streaming, I was 10 and 265 miles away Up North from my home in the city of Detroit, during the summer of '67, 50 years ago. My now late father, however, had to stay except for vacations/weekends b/c of work, but since the riots worsened, even he could not work @ his job near the late Tiger Stadium for more than a week or two. Unlike many, he still was paid b/c of being involuntarily unemployed was ordered by upper management for safety reasons.
