I saw this movie back in October- I was really looking forward to it, as I love Clint Eastwood films, but couldn’t help but feel pretty let down.
Based on a true story, Angelina Jolie plays Christine Collins, a single working mom in the 1920’s. When her son goes missing, she turns to the LAPD who bring back a boy that she claims is not her child.

Supporting acting nominees are great because they range from a mind blowing, one or two scene performance (Ruby Dee) to a strong acting presence throughout the whole film (Amy Ryan, Tilda Swinton). This year there is really anyone's game, as there are five fantastic actresses nominated. The nominees are:
Cate Blanchett in I'm Not There
Ruby Dee in American Gangster
Saoirse Ronan in Atonement
Amy Ryan in Gone Baby Gone
Tilda Swinton in Michael Clayton
Prediction
Cate Blanchett.

I saw this one in theaters just after I read the book. It compares pretty well; the book is slightly more convoluted with some more plot twists, but as far as condensing it into two hours, Affleck and Stockard adapted Dennis Lehane’s novel nicely.
Casey Affleck plays Patrick Kenzie, a private investigator that, along with his partner Angie Genarro (Michelle Monaghan), is investigating a missing child case in Boston.
