Featured review
Death in the Subway
A gorgeous woman enters in a wagon of the subway and is followed by two Afro-Americans. Out of the blue, there is a shooting and the two youths are seriously wounded. Following the lead of witnesses, Detectives Max Greevey and Mike Logan find that the X-ray technician Laura Di Biasi is the shooter and she claims self-defense since she believed the punks would rape her. They learn that Laura was a ballerina that had to give up her career due to damages in her body caused by a violent assault by three men and since then, she is armed. Now the DA office wants to prove that her shooting was a revenge of her previous attack and they must contain to the public opinion the idea of commuting by subway armed for safety reasons.
"Subterranean Homeboy Blues" is a great episode of "Law & Order" that raises a polemic theme good to be discussed. Laura Di Biasi, performed by the beautiful Cynthia Nixon, is an abused woman with a great trauma that affected her career, therefore, her life. When two punks attack her in a subway train, she does not hesitate and shoots them in self-defense. However, the DA office has political reasons to prosecute her to avoid opening precedent and let people embark in the public transportation with guns. The final result is reasonable regarding justice to Laura. My vote is eight.
