Movie Review: Unable to Escape Your Past
Summary: 5 Stars

Starring Billy Wirth as Griff put in jail at 15 for defending his mother from an abusive father. Locked away his youth is wasted in the correctional system. Given a chance to be paroled, with a close inmate who has become a father figure to him (Paul Benjamin). When an overdose kills his mentor Griff gets out in the real world, a place where he has never been in 18 years. He tries to bring comfort to the family and becomes involved with the sister in law. (Erica Gimpel.)

Hoping to have a normal life and love for the first time in his life only to have inmates from his pass show up along with a parole officer who is crooked.

He is doomed the minute he leaves prison. I felt it is the best work Mr. Wirth has done. The childlike expressions to seeing a baby for the first time, just the look on his face as air blows by, finding love and someone to care for him... just to get taken down and destroyed.
