a reporter (kate winslet) finds out about a death penalty opponent who is actually on death row (david gale/kevin spacey), and decides to find the true story behind it ... he hasn't talked to any other reporters, but he agrees to talk to her, or something like that.
Much angst ensues, she realizes she's being followed as she investigates what happened ... she thinks she might have found someone else who is the real murderer, as I recall.
However, Gale is executed before he can be proven innocent.
Then Winslet receives a stuffed rabbit at her office, rips it open, and finds a VHS tape inside it with incontrovertible proof that Gale was completely innocent - the victim had committed suicide.
And this is supposed to be Gale's supreme argument against the death penalty.
