    for some reason this movie slipped my attention 2 years ago and its always good to find out missing out something really good. On a film based on true happenings its pointless commenting on the story because hat just stands. The making is simply touching with great credit to Hillary Swank and Sam Rockwell. Even though Juliette lewis only has a supporting role, she acts just fantastic. If you're dramas and a tear of joy for a while this is your must see.

  • Fantastic movie

    This movie was moving at the speeed of 5MPH. You knew the story within the first 5 mintues of the movie, and just wondered why the director couldn't have made the plot more RIVETING. A total YAWNFEST! Half the movie was on FINDING EVIDENCE...and when that finally happened, the movie was OVER. Don't waste your time. Just look up Betty Ann Waters and enjoy the article.

    I thought this was a great depiction of how quickly we sometimes see "guilty before proven innocent" in our society, rather than the true meaning of our system - which can be wrong when there are corrupt individuals. A great tale of a sister's true love for her brother and the will to never give up.

  • Sleeper Movie of 2010

    This movie didn't get much love in the mainstream but it was fantastic. I try not to like Hillary Swank because something about her personality off camera bugs me. However, she delivers a phenomenal performance as she always does. This movie is worth watching.
