"Hurricane" the movie
The other day I was watching the movie "Hurricane" (1999) -based on a true story- starred by Denzel Washington who played Rubin “Hurricane” Carter, a professional boxer who was convicted of murder and then freed years later after activists worked to prove his innocence.
Here's its catch-phrase or my favourite quote of it:
"If hate put me in prison, love's gonna bust me out of it."
A true story, except that Carter admitted his guilt after being released from prison. The producers were sued by an ex-opponent of the Hurricane for falsely showing Carter winning their bout instead of being knocked out as really happened.
"Based on a true story" is a very vague statement.
I was born in Shiraz, Fars, Iran but I grew up in Tehran city, where my love of architecture, painting, and photography was developed. As a creative person art has always been a vital part of my life and I have been that lucky to try different medias but I have never sat down in art classes as Engineering is my occupation at the moment but I have also never needed to as Art is something you don't really need lectures for to understand its basic concepts and all you need to do is deepen your strengths. Caricature is mostly the main output of my works as it really provides all aspects of combining all those things I just mentioned above fully together. I also Write articles on various issues of arts once again mostly on cartoon from time to time in which some of them have been published around in different magazines & websites such as “kayhan caricature”. My works have also been exhibited for number of times in some exhibitions, books, magazines & newspapres in & outside Iran.

I always thought that I should write movie catchphrases for a living. Some days I just ooze cheesy shit like that.
