Ryan Coogler took up this incident and made it into movie, 2013 release '' Fruitvale Station'' is a powerful presentation of Oscar Grant's last days and emotional narration of his connection with his family, Ryan Coogler as a debutant through this heart touching work gave a best reliable expectation on his next works, Michael Jordan as Oscar Grant presented himself so effectively and succeeds in fueling the life into the character, his simple and naturalistic performance is appreciable, the storyline that focuses especially the softer side of Oscar Grant that takes the soothing narration and reaches the terrifying end, scenes like Oscar with his daughter and mother are effectively framed and presents good emotional values.
