"The Lost Bus" is a film directed by Paul Greengrass (Captain Phillips, United 93, most of the Jason Bourne films) and tells the true story of school bus driver Kevin McKay (played by Matthew McConaughey) who rogered up to go pick up a load of kids to be evacuated from a local school during the devastating 2018 Paradise Fire, the worst in California's history.
One of those films that definitely deserved a better reception than a quick, limited theatrical release only to get dumped on Apple TV.
Seriously, one of the best, most gripping movies I've seen in a long time and I can't stop thinking about how well it was made. Several comments on the YouTube trailer I posted are from people who were there testifying that, yes, the fire was that bad.

Self righteous drivel
The democrats had 2 lanes of 4 removed in the area of Paradise years earlier and many people died on that road trying to escape. The cars jammed up due to few lanes.
The town had earlier wanted money from the state and the democrats had strings attached. This is referred as a road diet.
