SLOW BURN
SYNOPSIS
A sexy, stylish thriller, SLOW BURN stars Ray Liotta
as Ford Cole, a big-city district attorney with his eye
on the mayor's office and a big problem on his
hands. One of his deputies, the beautiful assistant
district attorney Nora Timmer (Jolene Blalock), has
just confessed to killing a man in what she claims
was self-defense. A bad situation gets worse when
an enigmatic stranger named Luther Pinks (James
Todd Smith) turns up at the police station to
contradict Nora's story and paint a very different
picture of Ford's talented colleague. With his career
and perhaps his life on the line, Ford has a mere
handful of hours to sort the truth from the lies in a
saga involving Nora, a record store clerk (Mekhi
Phifer), and a powerful gang lord.
SLOWBURN is produced by GreeneStreet Films
co-founder Fisher Stevens, Sidney Kimmel of Sidney
Kimmel Entertainment, Bonnie Timmermann of
