Good and Captivating Movie

Rating: 8/10 (28 November 2013)

What I liked about this movie is that it's based on a true story, set in California in 1928. The tragic and gruesome details of the killings committed by the murderer are so unbelievable that someone would think it was only a fiction story. The behavior of the L.A. Police towards Christine Collins (Angelina Jolie), the mother of the missing child, also resemble something you would find more in fiction than in reality but, according to the facts, it really took place at the beginning of the 20th century. The plot and the characters manage to deliver a truly gripping movie, in which the spectator can't be indifferent and wants Police Officer Jones and the Director of the Psychiatric Clinic punished for their ruthless conduct.
