Changeling (film)
Changeling is a 2008 American mystery crime drama film directed, produced, and scored by Clint Eastwood and written by J. Michael Straczynski, that explores child endangerment, female disempowerment, political corruption, mistreatment of mental health patients, and the repercussions of violence.
The script was based on real- life events, specifically the 1928 Wineville Chicken Coop Murders in Mira Loma, California.
The film stars Angelina Jolie as a woman united with a boy whom she realizes is not her missing son.
When she tries to demonstrate this to the police and city authorities, she is vilified as delusional, labeled as an unfit mother, and confined to a psychiatric ward.
Working in 1983 as a special correspondent for the now defunct TV- Cable Week magazine, Straczynski first encountered the story of Christine Collins and her son from a Los Angeles City Hall contact.
Over the ensuing years he kept researching the story, but never felt he was ready to tackle it.
Out of television writing for several years and practically blacklisted in the industry because he was considered difficult to work with, he returned to researching and then finally writing the story in 2006.
Almost all of the film's script was drawn from thousands of pages of documentation.
His first draft became the shooting script; it was his first film screenplay to be produced.
Ron Howard had intended to direct the film, but scheduling conflicts led to his replacement by Eastwood.
Howard and his Imagine Entertainment partner Brian Grazer produced" Changeling" alongside Malpaso Productions' Robert Lorenz and Eastwood.
Universal Pictures financed and distributed the film.
Several actors campaigned for the leading role; ultimately, Eastwood decided that Jolie's face would suit the 1920s period setting.
The film also stars Jeffrey Donovan, Jason Butler Harner, John Malkovich, Michael Kelly, and Amy Ryan.
While some characters are composites, most are based on actual people.
Principal photography, which began on October 15, 2007, and concluded a few weeks later in December, took place in Los Angeles and other locations in southern California.
Actors and crew noted that Eastwood's low- key direction resulted in a calm set and short working days.
In post- production, scenes were supplemented with computer- generated skylines, backgrounds, vehicles and people.
" Changeling" premiered to critical acclaim at the 61st Cannes Film Festival on May 20, 2008.
Additional festival screenings preceded a limited release in the United States on October 24, 2008, followed by a general release in North America on October 31, 2008; in the United Kingdom on November 26, 2008; and in Australia on February 5, 2009.
