In the Name of Good Acting!

This is a wonderful movie, a must for anyone who enjoys a good underdog story. It starts off strong, loses momentum toward the end, but is worth seeing for the performances of Daniel Day-Lewis and Pete Postlethwaite. Yes, this is a true story about injustice and political corruption, but at its heart is the relationship between father and son. Look out for the scene when Day-Lewis and Postlethwaite talk for the first time in jail, it's one of the best in recent film history!
