You are invited to an exclusive First Glance MIFF Member preview of Dead Man's Wire on Tuesday 23 June, thanks to our friends at Madman Entertainment.
The morning of February 8, 1977, Anthony G. “Tony” Kiritsis, 44, entered the office of Richard O. Hall, president of the Meridian Mortgage Company, and took him hostage with a sawed-off 12-gauge shotgun wired with a “dead man’s wire” from the trigger to the Hall’s head. This is the true story of the stand-off that took the world by storm as Tony demanded $5 million, no charges or prosecution, and a personal apology from the Halls for cheating him out of what he was “owed.”
A film by Gus Van Sant starring Bill Skarsgård, Dacre Montgomery, Colman Domingo and Al Pacino.
