Comment
In the late 1920's in Los Angeles a single mother (Angelina Jolie) returns home to find her son is missing. Several months later the police claim to have found the boy, but his mother claims he is not her son for which the police put her in a mental asylumn. A local minister (John Malkovich) instigates a public campaign to releaase her and then the police find a boy who claims that he was forced to help a man kill lots of children. This is a film about truth, lies,corruption and the abuse of power that is very well produced and directed by Clint Eastwood, who gets a good performance from Angelina Jolie as the mother who is both abused by the system and yet is a strong woman.
