David Gale (Spacey) was head of the philosophy department at the (fictional) University of Austin, an author, and active member of Deathwatch, an anti-capital punishment activist group. At a graduation party, an inebriated David was seduced by Berlin, an attractive student who had previously tried to entice him into raising her failing grade, which resulted in her expulsion from school. After the party, she falsely accused Gale of rape. Berlin dropped the charges and fled but the negative publicity cost Gale his career and marriage.Constance Harraway (Linney), a fellow Deathwatch activist, is a close friend, especially after Gale's wife left with their son to Spain. The custody laws there favor the mother and her father was the American ambassador, effectively shutting Gale out of his child's life. Harraway is found raped and murdered and Gale is charged and convicted, despite the best efforts of his lawyer.Gale awaits execution. He agrees, for a substantial fee, to tell his story to Bitsey Bloom (Winslet), a journalist from a major news magazine. It becomes clear to Bloom that the details simply do not add up. A mysterious stranger slips evidence to her that suggest Gale has been framed, leaving Bloom only days to save Gale from execution.An implication that the rapist videotaped the assault is replaced by the revelation that Harraway recorded herself committing suicide, since she was going to die soon regardless from an ongoing battle with leukemia. The video isn't found until moments before Gale's death. In a frenzy, Bloom tries to present the evidence to stop the execution. Unfortunately, she doesn't reach the courthouse in time and Gale dies an innocent man. The tape is released after his death, resulting in a media and political uproar.In an epilogue, the mysterious stranger delivers the interview fee from the magazine to Gale's wife in Spain along with a postcard from Berlin apologizing for the false rape accusation. His ex-wife looks distraught, knowing Gale told the truth and that she effectively stole their child away from him.A different videotape is delivered to Bloom, labeled "Off the Record." This one shows Dusty Wright, the mysterious stranger, who once also belonged to Deathwatch but was asked to leave due to his extremist beliefs, confirming Harraway's death and then stepping aside to allow Gale, also present, to leave his thumb print on a plastic bag that Harraway used to suffocate herself.
I was watching this film last week and immediately thought of the hoax.
Have you guys seen the movie 'The Life Of David Gale' ?

Register or LoginWhy does his family give so much interviews? Isn't it better to stay quiet in the sake of the hoax so no slip ups can't be made?Why choose a death with a drug like propofol? Why all this circus with legal stuff, the coming arrest of Murray etc?Why are there sooooo many clues that indicate he indeed faked his death? Why doesn't the family say that there is no hoax?Maybe this hoax is something like the movie The Life Of David Gale. The family is giving as many details as possible (especially LaToya :lol: ) so his hoax won't loose it's credibility. I think Michael is trying to say to the world that the media can make everything seems as believable as they want. To prove this point he does the exact same thing. He tried to tell us before but most people didn't believe him, so he has to do something kinda extreme to wake everybody up. What do you think?
I just had another thought; maybe the missing tapes of june 25th will appear again after he returns. Because it shows the planning of the disappearance. Just a thought. :geek:
maybe a video tape of the security cam with MJ alive will be enough... like the layers are trying to have MJ back from death like a real thriller... "Dr. Conrad Murray's star defense witness in the involuntary manslaughter case against him for the death Michael Jackson will be Jackson himself!Murray's defense team plans to resurrect Michael from his grave, in a manner reminiscent of his thriller video, to defend their client."
