It's a pretty simple story. Cut an hour out of it and give it some "oomph" and it would have been fascinating. By the end I really didn't care to see the finish...it didn't seem to matter to me at all what the final outcome was. Here's the story: One day in 1920's Los Angeles a single mother comes home from work one day and her son is gone. She frantically calls the police and they aren't very helpful. Luckily, a local minister with a radio show broadcasts her story, creates a stink about it. The police find her son and re-unite them. But it's not her son. But the police assure her she's just confused from the trauma etc. She goes to dentists, neighbours, teachers, etc. and they all agree with her; it's not her son. So she hounds the LAPD some more. They throw her in a mental ward to shut her up. Meanwhile, a serial killer (who killed 20+ children) is discovered, and her son is among the dead (perhaps). The minister gets a lawyer and storms the mental hospital, freeing the mother. They all expose what the LAPD did (the switcheroo with the kid to shut up the public about him gone missing when they should have been finding that serial killer, and locking her and other women up in a mental ward to shut them up). The LAPD captains lose their jobs, the serial killer is hanged. THE END. That's it. That's basically all that happens in the film. It really shouldn't be that long. It just drags and drags and drags. There's a "serial killer in court" scene, a "serial killer talks to the mother scene", and a "serial killer gets hanged scene" tacked onto the end...all for no reason at all. They could have just shown a 5 second clip of him being hanged and we would lose nothing from it. Same thing with the police captain trial. He loses his job and the courtroom all claps and cheers wildly. All of this can be cut. It's just all padded nonsense. Also, they threw in some historical inaccuracies just for kicks. The serial killer actually killed the boys along with his mother; there were 4 boys killed, not 20+, no boys escaped from the ranch, etc. I suggest just reading the wikipedia page and giving the movie a pass: [...] |
