During a high school basketball game, Odin James scores the basket that wins the game for his team. Later at an awards ceremony, the coach Duke Goulding presents the Most Valuable Player award to Odin for his efforts, an award he shares with his teammate Michael Cassio. In giving Odin the award, Duke passes over his son Hugo, Odin's teammate and friend. At a party celebrating the victory, Hugo plots with school outcast Roger Calhoun to go to the school's dean, Bob Brable, and tell him that Odin raped his daughter, Desi, whom Odin has been dating. Hugo promises Roger that Desi will be his after Odin is out of the way, but Roger is only a pawn in Hugo's ultimate plan to destroy Odin.
Later, in another game, Odin's team wins once again. At the celebration party, Hugo engineers a fight between Roger and a very drunk Michael, who is temporarily suspended from the team. Hugo tells Michael to ingratiate himself with Desi so that she will talk to Odin on his behalf. Soon afterward, Hugo tells Odin that Michael and Desi have been spending a lot of time together, and that she may be cheating on him. Odin doesn't believe this at first, but gradually comes to suspect them. Odin questions Desi, but she calms him down and he believes her. Nevertheless, the stress of the situation drives Odin to begin using drugs.
Hugo manipulates his girlfriend Emily into stealing a scarf for him that Odin gave to Desi. Hugo, in turn, gives it to Michael in hopes that Odin will believe Desi gave Michael the scarf in an effort to prove Desi is cheating on Odin.
Meanwhile, Odin and Desi are having sex at a motel, during which Odin sees an image of Michael on top of Desi in the mirror; angered, he becomes very rough with Desi, to the point that she cries out for him to stop, a plea he ignores as he continues to rape her. Afterward, they lie together staring in opposite directions.
After Odin assaults another student during a game in a drug-fueled rage, Hugo tells him about the scarf, convincing him that Desi is cheating on him. Enraged, Odin vows to kill her; Hugo then promises to kill Michael. Hugo, with Odin and Roger, plans to kill Michael and Desi. Hugo and Roger attempt to kill Michael in a carjacking, but it does not go as planned: Roger and Michael struggle, Hugo hits Michael with a crowbar, knocking him unconscious. Roger shoots Michael in the leg, and then Hugo turns the gun on Roger and kills him after telling him that Desi is dead.
Odin and Desi are in Desi's room talking and Odin is pretending to make up with her. They are making out on the bed when suddenly Odin attacks her; Desi fights back, but he finally strangles her to death. Emily rushes into the room and sees Desi's corpse; she soon finds out what Hugo has done. She begins telling Odin that Hugo told her to steal the scarf and exposes his plot, and Hugo fatally shoots her when she refuses to be quiet. Odin finally realizes that Hugo has been manipulating him the entire time, and demands to know why; Hugo refuses to answer. When the police arrive, Odin tells them what happened and shoots himself, dying by suicide. As Hugo is taken into police custody, he says in voice over that he will have his day in the spotlight.
Screenwriter Brad Kaaya's inspiration for the script came from Shakespeare's Othello, "the spate of suburban school shootings that rocked the country in the 1980s", and his own experiences as a black teenager attending a largely white private school.[4] Tim Blake Nelson came across the script while filming Terrence Malick's The Thin Red Line, and was offered the chance to direct based on his directorial debut Eye of God.[4]
The official release date was initially October 17, 1999, but was postponed following the Columbine High School massacre in April of that year.[6] The delay was likely due to the film's themes of sex and violence in high school, as suggested by its director.[6] Another theory is that it was held back until after the 2000 U.S. presidential election.[5][8][9] The film was initially due to be released by Miramax but the studio passed it to Lions Gate after O's producers sued for breach of contract.[6][10]
The film has received moderately positive reviews. On Rotten Tomatoes, it has a 65% approval rating based on 124 reviews, with an average score of 6.1/10 and a consensus: "Though well-intentioned and serious in its exploration of teen violence, O is an uneven experiment that doesn't quite succeed".[11] On Metacritic, the film achieved an average score of 53 out of 100 based on 26 reviews, signifying "mixed or average reviews".[12]
Roger Ebert gave the film 3 and stars out of 4 and wrote O is "a good film for most of the way, and then a powerful film at the end, when, in the traditional Shakespearean manner, all of the plot threads come together."[8] Ebert added, "Mekhi Phifer makes a strong, tortured Odin, and delivers a final speech, which in its heartbreaking anguish, inspires our pity much as Othello's does. Josh Hartnett showed here, years before 'Pearl Harbor,' that he is capable of subtleties and complexities that epic did not dream of."[8] Mick LaSalle of the San Francisco Chronicle also gave a positive review, writing, "The result is that a tale of teen violence takes on qualities of timelessness and universality it would not otherwise possess, while the 'Othello' story leaps out with a rare immediacy."[13]
O was nominated for a Black Reel Award for Best Actor for Mekhi Phifer.[9] Tim Blake Nelson also won the Golden Space Needle Award at the Seattle international Film Festival for Best Director.[15]
In 2020, actor Danny Masterson of 'That '70s Show' fame faced charges of forcibly raping three women in incidents spanning between 2001 and 2003. After pleading not guilty in January 2021, the stage was set for a gripping trial that culminated on May 31, 2023.
On March 3, 2017, the Los Angeles Police Department launched an investigation into actor Danny Masterson after receiving complaints from three women who alleged assaults in the early 2000s. These victims, also affiliated with the Church of Scientology, asserted that the organization dissuaded them from filing charges during that period. Masterson refuted the allegations.
Fast forward to November 2, 2017, when a fourth victim came forward, accusing the actor of sexual assault. The LAPD, actively conducting interviews with the accusers since late 2016, had already submitted their findings to the district attorney by April 2017. The timeline reveals a complex web of allegations, investigations, and the challenging dynamics surrounding the case.
On November 16, 2017, actress Chrissie Carnell, a former colleague of Masterson on That '70s Show, stepped forward with allegations against the actor. Carnell also criticized Netflix for maintaining a professional relationship with Masterson.
Moving to December 4, 2017, one of the victims asserted that a Netflix executive, Andy Yeatman, the then director of global kids content, expressed disbelief in the allegations against Masterson. Subsequently, Netflix confirmed this incident and took action by terminating Yeatman from his position.
On June 17, 2020, the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office revealed charges against Masterson for allegedly raping three women. Prosecutors assert that the actor assaulted a 23-year-old woman in 2001, a 28-year-old woman in April 2003, and another 23-year-old woman between October and December 2003. On the same day, Masterson was arrested and subsequently released on bond. Throughout this legal ordeal, he consistently maintained his innocence, vehemently denying the charges levied against him.
On October 18, 2022, the trial formally commences with both sides presenting their opening statements. Fast forward to May 31, 2023, where after seven days of deliberation, the jury delivers a conviction on two counts of rape against Danny Masterson. The legal saga concludes on September 7, 2023, with the court imposing a sentence of 30 years to life on the actor.
One of the victims passionately expressed, "You are pathetic, disturbed, and completely violent. The world is better off with you in prison." The timeline encapsulates the critical milestones in Masterson's legal journey, marking a decisive outcome in the pursuit of justice.
Since airing, viewers pointed out how the storyline seemed to be inspired by a 2020 incident where a woman was travelling on a motorway towards Lahore with her two children when she was raped by two men.
