Changeling

Plot

When a single mother's child disappears, Christine Collins enters a world (the 1920s) dominated by men who try to hide the truth of her son's disappearance. The corrupt Los Angeles police department, headed by James Davis, claims they have found Christine Collins's son. However, Christine knows the boy the police department found is not Walter...

Clint Eastwood: "When [a crime] comes along quite as big as this one, you question humanity. It never ceases to surprise me how cruel humanity can be."
