KCRW's video: Behind The Screens - Elvis Mitchell in conversation with Angel Manuel Soto and Jahi Di Allo Winston

On October 13th, 2020, KCRW hosted the second installment of the Behind the Screens series featuring Elvis Mitchell in conversation with Director, Angel Manuel Soto and Jahi Di'Allo Winston, "Mouse" from the new film "Charm City Kings" from HBO Max. In this gritty coming-of-age drama, fourteen-year-old Mouse (Jahi Di’Allo Winston) desperately wants to join the Midnight Clique, an infamous group of Baltimore dirt-bike riders who rule the summertime streets. His older brother, Stro, was their top rider before his tragic death—a loss that consumes Mouse as much as his passion for bikes. Mouse’s mom (Teyonah Parris) and his police mentor, Detective Rivers (William Catlett), work overtime to help the charismatic teen reach his full potential, but when the Midnight Clique’s leader, Blax (Meek Mill), takes the boy under his wing, the lure of revving his own dirt bike skids Mouse toward a road way past the straight and narrow. http://www.kcrw.com Music | Culture | News | NPR
