Mini-Review: A superb ensemble cast, which includes Sayles as Ring Lardner, shines in this true-life shocker, with Strathairn and Cusack giving standout performances.
Mini-Review: This movie gets started on a promising note, but it is sabotaged by a weak, contrived ending.
Mini-Review: Palcy sometimes allows things to become melodramatic, especially the film's main villain. Overall, however, she tells a powerful, upsetting story in a riveting, unforgettable way.
Mini-Review: Uhry's stage play is brought to stunning, emotionally satisfying life by Beresford and his superb cast. Aykroyd is remarkably effective as Daisy's doting son.
