"If that's your son, I'll eat my yardstick."

I had wanted to see The Changeling in the theater but we just never got around to it, and now I wish we had made more of an effort because it was really good. As mentioned previously, we're Team Angelina all the way, and can't understand how anyone can possibly say she's not a good actress. She is so amazing to watch on her journey as a woman whose son is abducted and then has her already upended life almost destroyed by the corrupt and twisted LAPD. The crap she goes through is so harrowing that it seems impossible that any of it could be true, but it really happened. Her physical transformation is also stunning - from a drop dead gorgeous, independent, single mother to a beaten down mental patient. In fact, the whole movie is visually breath taking. Once again, Clint Eastwood impressed the hell out of us with his wonderful directing, and the lady who really seems to be a front runner for MVP of the 100 Movies of Summer has got to be Amy Ryan. She is astounding in every role she plays, and immerses herself so deeply in every single one that she is virtually unrecognizable. At this point I think she would be just as much a draw for us to want to see a movie as any other actor.
