Rented the movie this weekend... didn't really know anything about it, other than it has Jennifer Connelly and Ben Kingsley.

Powerful acting by Kingsley and Connelly... If you're not up for watching a tragedy, you'll want to steer clear of this, it's worth watching, IMHO.

She's my favourite actress so what can I say... Still, I find the whole story hard to believe.

And the deputy is a handsomehunk.

I mean it does stretch a bit too far my suspension of disbelief.

I'd have to say it was one of the better movies I've ever seen.  If for no other reason than I had mixed feelings about it for days.

Never heard of it, but will check it out. Always into a good tragedy.
