Audiences nationwide can experience the inspiring true story of Brooks Douglass, the youngest state senator in Oklahoma history, when 'The Amendment,'premieres in U.S. cinemas for a one-night event this spring. Writtenby Douglass and Paul Brown, this tale of justice chronicles Douglass' struggle to turn evil into good when his parents were murdered in their rural Oklahoma home while he and his sister were just teenagers. Douglass later spearheaded the victims' rights bill to ensure victims like him had opportunities for closure when perpetrators were convicted of their crimes.
