Los Angeles, 1928: On a Saturday morning in a working-class suburb, Christine (Angelina Jolie) said goodbye to her son, Walter, and left for work. When she came home, she discovered he had vanished. A fruitless search ensues, and months later, a boy claiming to be the nine-year-old is returned. Dazed by the swirl of cops, reporters and her conflicted emotions, Christine allows him to stay overnight. But in her heart, she knows he is not Walter.
PRO REVIEWS
----------------------------------------
"Despite Ms. Jolie’s hard work and Mr. Eastwood’s scrupulous attention, the difficult, fairly one-dimensional character fails to take hold. (...) she was more persuasive holding back her tears as a steely Mariane Pearl in 'A Mighty Heart'." (Manohla Dargis: The New York Times) ----------------------------------------
"Emotionally powerful and stylistically sure-handed." (Todd McCarthy: Variety) ----------------------------------------
