Ratings and reviews

Absolutely sensational film.Full of emotive and challenging moral issues.The dynamics between the protagonists,i.e. the criminal fraternity and journalistic reporting challenges the very fabric of our society.When the truth of the situation is revealed,like a bad toothache,under a veil of darkness or cowardiceness the solution is extraction.This was the case with Veronica Gueran,played superbly by C Blanchett,an unwavering and remarkable women who paid the ultimate price.

Very good, well acted, solid drama.
