FRUITVALE STATION The film “Fruitvale Station” is based on a true story set in Oakland, California 1st January 2009. The film is about a 22 -year -old a man called “Oscar Grant”, who has a daughter, a close relationship with his mum and also had a girlfriend. He came from a “poor” family which led him onto selling drugs such as weed, which then led him to go prison several times. The story takes a tragic turn at the Fruitvale subway stop on New Year's Day. My opinion of the film “Fruitvale Station”, is an attention-grabbing film. I recommend this film to everyone.
