Review of Changeling (2008) by Leah F — 28 Apr 2012

I would probably not have acted the way Jolie's character did in this movie; I'd have killed someone for replacing my kid with someone else's and ended up in jail rather than a mental institution.

Seeing as it's based on a true story, that is an incredibly horrible thing to do to someone, and I hope the ones who really did that to her were 'persecuted' the way they deserved to be. I wasn't much for the music, but I wouldn't be able to suggest something better for the film.

Changeling left me feeling sympathetic toward the mother, and angry toward the insecure bastard who went around killing children as well as the cops who tried to replace Walter, and threw the "troublesome" mother into an institution.
