22 LIVES LINKED BY A MOMENT THE WORLD WOULD NEVER FORGET.
It took Emilio Estevez many years to get this movie done, but eventually it turned into a talked-about event with a truly star-studded cast. The story follows 22 people who stay or work at the Ambassador Hotel in L.A. at the time when Robert F. Kennedy was shot there after winning the California primary in 1968. He is supposed to be the center of the film and its little human stories, but Estevez never really creates a cohesive whole. The movie is entertaining and has its moments, but itās more reminiscent ofĀ Grand HotelĀ (1932) thanĀ NashvilleĀ (1975), which isnāt right for this film.
