Out of Time

Director Carl Franklin and actor Denzel Washington team up again (following 1995's Devil in a Blue Dress) for the crime thriller Out of Time. Washington stars as Matt Lee Whitlock, the well-respected Chief of Police in a quiet Florida community. While in the process of getting a divorce from fellow detective Alex (Eva Mendez), Matt engages in an affair with his high school sweetheart Ann Merai (Sanaa Lathan). Unfortunately, Ann Merai is married to the extremely jealous Chris (Dean Cain), a former pro football player who works as a security guard. After a major murder occurs in the community, Matt finds himself the main suspect. With the help of his medical examiner pal Chae (John Billingsley), Matt must solve the case before he is found guilty himself.
