Andre Gonzales
5/10Old school movie a lot of people probably never saw. It's your typical husband beating his wife. All their friends and family know about it and do nothing. There is a twist. It's worth a watch.

Something terrible happened that night. Something everyone wanted to talk about. Something no one was telling the truth about.

Mortal Thoughts Synopsis
A loathsome man ends up dead, but it's not clear who's to blame. If ever a person got what he deserved, it's James Urbanksi, an abusive drunk who steals from his wife, Joyce, and promises her close friend Cynthia Kellogg that she'll be the next target of his rage. At a group outing, James bleeds to death after someone cuts his throat. But because he's such a terrible human being, police aren't sure which of his acquaintances decided to kill him.
