In The Valley Of Elah

Who's in it? Tommy Lee Jones, Charlize Theron, Susan Sarandon, James Franco
What's it about? A career officer and his wife work with a police detective to uncover the truth behind their son's disappearance following his return from a tour of duty in Iraq.
What type of film is it? Drama
Is it any good? It’s very but for some reason did miniscule business at the box office when it was released in cinemas at the beginning of the year. It’s not an easy watch but it is absorbing and worth checking out. Tommy Lee Jones turns in another great performance and Charlize Theron is back on form after a few bad role choices in recent years. Not brilliant, but it doesn’t deserve to be ignored in the way that it has been.
