Mississippi Burning

  (1988)
When three civil rights workers disappear in 1964 Mississippi, two FBI agents (Gene Hackman and Willem Dafoe) with wildly divergent investigative styles find themselves resorting to increasingly violent tactics to apprehend the culprit Ku Klux Klan. Crucial to the case is the testimony of a beautician (Frances McDormand) who's struggling to break free from her husband's influence. Director Alan Parker's fact-based drama received seven Oscar nods.
