Changeling



Film: Changeling
Year: 2008
Time:  141min
Rating: 7.9/10


This film, absolutely brilliant and superbly played by Angelina Jolie, tells the true story of a single mother of 20 years, which despite only having the child in life, you lose. Fate could not have been more unfair when one Saturday afternoon in which he had promised his son to go to the movies, receives a call and has to go to work. When he returns home, this parent is no longer her son, Walter. Then began a dispute between a mother desperate to know what happened to the missing son and the police trying to discredit it publicly.

The film is excellent, the critical fact have done justice to the beauty and fidelity to time, wardrobe, good taste in music and casting, only compliments. Up to praise some humor achieved in the final part, that "Silent Night" sung by someone about to be hanged is simply hilarious, despite the seriousness of the topic.

One thing that really intrigued me was the character who plays Jason Butler Harner (Gordon Stewart), a serial killer who abducted children to kill ... then Kidnapping children just to kill them later? Until we heard from a friend that this serial killer of children sexually abused and then killed them, then the mystery was solved, however this information is not explicit in the film as well.

Changeling is a film extremely well done, with excellent production values ​​that would not work if the cast was chosen not to height or reconstitution of the time (1928) was not as well made as it was.
