This was a heartbreaking story. I can't believe these things actually happened in LA. I bet these things happened in other places too like throwing women into psychiatric wards for hysteria. They make electroshock therapy look bad, but in reality it really helps some people with severe depression wake up. It is always portrayed negatively in films. I thought Angelina Jolie did a fantastic job in this. I don't think she should have got the oscar for it. I think what made her so great in this film was probably that she as a parent could imagine what it would be like to lose a child. The previews only ever showed the wrong kid being returned to her, not the whole other part which I thought made the movie so great. I think since it was a mystery in the previews that I will keep it a mystery here too. Though I did think the signing of "Silent Night" was pretty creepy. I wonder if he actually sang that or if that was something that Eastwood threw in.
