Captivating and well-done dramatization of Charles Whitman's 1966 shooting spree (one of the first of many to come in the USA) and of course it happened in Texas. What a surprise. Whitman was an abused time bomb with a brain tumor who also murdered his wife and mother so they wouldn't have to be put in the spotlight and face the shame and public scorn of his crime. This was a breakout role for Kurt Russell and he does a very convincing job as a mass murderer.
