7.8 / 10

Los Angeles, 1928. A single mother returns from work to find her nine-year-old son gone. She calls the LAPD to initiate a search. Five months later, a boy is found in Illinois who fits the description; he says he's her son. To fanfare and photos, the LAPD reunite mother and son, but she insists he's not her boy. The cops dismiss her as either a liar or hysterical. When she joins a minister in his public criticism of the police, they in turn use government power to silence and intimidate her. Meanwhile, a cop goes to a dilapidated ranch to find a Canadian lad who's without legal status; the youth tells a grisly tale. There's redress for murder; is there redress for abuse of power?

This is where I learned about how bad the LAPD could get even back then. Of course, I’m not sure if they’re still this bad, considering I don’t really hear much about them anymore - @Tuesday, July 31, 2018 3:27 AM

I like that in this film people speak with trans atlantic accent, like how people actually spoke back then, or at on the radio. - @Thursday, February 16, 2017 10:33 PM

What's quite cool is that the Church this movie is filmed at "All Saints Church" in pasadena, has very similar causes to Reverend Briegleb. That is, All saints has always been a very Progressive church heavily emphasizing on Social Justice and speaking out against corruption in the United States Goverment. - @Thursday, February 16, 2017 10:32 PM
