Mystic River.

The deliverance of the information is the key ingredient that unlocks this marvel, for even though it lacks the essential crisp in it, its impact definitely outgrows the potential. The adaptation by Brian Helgeland is, if not gripping, dark and brutal that stays true to its tone throughout the course of it. Clint Eastwood; as expected, has brilliantly executed the script and holds on to his part of the work with the help of amazing cinematography and fine editing. Sean Penn is achingly good in his portrayal of a troubled parent and is supported by a great cast like Tim Robbins, Kevin Bacon and Lawrence Fishburne. Mystic River flows smoothly off to the shore despite of having some ups and downs and the reason behind it would be none other than Clint and his skills.
