Review of The Brave One (2007) by Ash J — 17 Nov 2010
Crime-drama/psychological thriller film released in 2007, directed by Neil Jordan, starring Jodie Foster.The film earned Foster a Golden Globe nomination for leading actress in a drama.
As radio show host Erica Bain (Jodie Foster) and her fiancà (C) David (Naveen Andrews) are walking their dog at Stranger's Gate in New York's Central Park, they are attacked by three violent criminals. David dies from his injuries, but Erica survives. Angry and traumatized, she attempts to purchase a gun. Unwilling to wait the month required to obtain a notice of approval, she acquires a Kahr K9 illegally, and is drawn into a world of vigilantism, killing random criminals and attempting to track down the thugs who killed David.
Great performance of Foster in a realistic and very good movie.
