Title: The Changeling - 2008 film based on true story 1926-28
Post by: Robbie on April 15, 2018, 11:11:55 PM

This is the third time I've watched the film, put it on tonight because my husband couldn't stay awake through it last time it was on; he's watching it now, glued to the screen.

My opinion is tht it is an amazing, true-to-life (disregarding the Hollywood make up etc), film and is so harrowing; I find myself weeping and think Angelina Jolie is amazing, so is Malkovitch.

Terrible to think that it is basically a true story.

A nineteen year old man committed such horrible murders. Beggars belief.

It's a strange and tragic case. If someone had written it, you suspect it would be dismissed as too far fetched. The murderer would appear to have been serially abused as well. It's a very well done film.
