the first time i saw this movie, i was quite taken aback by the unraveling of the plot. i just thought it was about a missing child and how the search for him tried and tested his mother; i never thought that the search would end in such an unfortunate way.
the first shocking thing was actually angelina's appearance: she looked sickly thin, her facial features stood out even more because the bones in her face were protruding already - i wondered if that was a conscious thing she did, losing a LOT of weight. the next thing was how the setting was recreated and recaptured. it was perfect.
i'm a history buff and i loved that this was a period piece, something that i can do research on after watching the movie. i just didn't quite expect it to be a reluctant task on my part because it dealt with children and craziness.
outstanding performance as always from angelina, though a mighty heart will always be my favorite :)
john malkovich was tremendous :) i love him so much!
