A gripping and powerful new trailer has been released for Detroit. The trailer centers around John Boyega's character being interrogated by the police for the killing of three people. It looks like Boyega gives an incredible performance in this movie. I also included a new featurette that focuses on the true events that the film is based on, which is intriguing and eye-opening. It features interviews with the actual individuals who were involved with these events.
The movie is a crime drama based on real life events that are set against the backdrop of Detroit's 1967 riots. It's described as "a gripping story of one of the darkest moments during the civil unrest that rocked Detroit during that summer."
The movie comes from Kathryn Bigelow, the Academy Award-winning director of The Hurt Locker and Zero Dark Thirty. It also stars Will Poulter, Algee Smith, Jacob Latimore, Jason Mitchell, Hannah Murray,...

The trailer depicts a dark and racially charged Us, Detroit to be precise, at the height of the 1967 troubles. Starting with a detained John Boyega as he starts to relay the events of that fateful night where three youngsters were killed, leading to a police raid of excessive gunfire which sees the community take to violent protest. As the trailer unfolds, the two arrogant cops turn the tables on Boyega to lay blame at his feet as war rages on the street whilst “Change is Coming” rings out.

During the long, hot summer of 1967, the city of Detroit erupted into a full-blown war zone as police clashed with the predominantly Africa-American population of the inner city.
That civil disturbance, one which would go on to become one of the costliest in American history, was reportedly sparked by a police raid of an unlicensed bar in mid-July, leading to four terrifying days and nights of fiercely controversial incidents, such as the Algiers Motel killings. All of this and more is teased in the tense first trailer for Kathryn Bigelow’s drama, which finds John Boyega’s (Star Wars: The Last Jedi) security guard under interrogation. It’s a remarkably intense and effective scene, and one that tees up the calm before the oncoming storm.
Assuming Bigelow’s real-life drama stays true to the history books – and we’re inclined to believe it will – the story of Detroit will likely unfold over those four days,...

Academy Award-winning director of The Hurt Locker and Zero Dark Thirty, Kathryn Bigelow looks all set to deliver the high stakes yet again with her next project if the brand new trailer for Detroit is anything to go by.
Bigelow has reunited with screenwriter Mark Boal (The Hurt Locker, Zero Dark Thirty) to tell the gripping story of one of the darkest moments during the civil unrest that rocked Detroit in the summer of 1967, a story of a simple police raid resulting in one of the largest citizen uprisings in the United States history.

Topping the list with six nominations each are Jay-z, Kanye West, Fun., Mumford & Sons, Frank Ocean and Dan Auerbach of The Black Keys.
Taylor Swift, whose new album "Red" won't be eligible for consideration until 2014, earned a single nod for Record of the Year with her hit breakup single "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together."
The biggest snubs are teen heartthrobs Justin Bieber and One Direction, who cleaned up at the American Music Awards, and Rihanna. The "Diamonds" singer earned a trio of nods (pop solo performance for her "Where Have You Been," rap-sung collaboration nomination with Jay-z for "Talk That Talk" and short-form music video for "We Found Love") but is Mia from the major categories.

Song of the Year nominees at the 2013 Grammy Awards include Carly Rae Jepsen, fun., Kelly Clarkson, Ed Sheeran and Miguel Pimentel.
The Song of the Year category at the Grammys "recognizes the songwriter(s)." That's in different from the Record of the Year category, which "recognizes the artist’s performance as well as the overall contributions of the producer(s), recording engineer(s) and/or mixer(s) if other than the artist," according to Grammy.org.
Jepsen, who was not nominated for Best New Artist, did receive a nomination for Song of the Year for "Call Me Maybe"; Clarkson was honored for "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill Me)"; fun. was hailed for "We Are Young"; Ed Sheeran was singled out for "The A-Team"; and Pimentel was a surprise choice for "Adorn," off his second album, "Kaleidoscope Dream."
At the 54th annual Grammy Awards in 2012, Adele won Song of the Year for "Rolling in the Deep.

While you’re losing it over that Frank Ocean album, another set this year can scratch that itch, and perhaps more efficiently. Miguel’s “Kaleidescope Dream” is a relevant, saucy R&B adventure that incorporates rock, funk, electronica, soul and pop not out of novelty, but guardless necessity.
