FILM DESCRIPTION:
Los Angeles, 1928: On a Saturday morning in a working-class suburb, Christine said goodbye to her son, Walter, and left for work. When she came home, she discovered he had vanished. A fruitless search ensues, and months later, a boy claiming to be the nine-year-old is returned. Dazed by the swirl of cops, reporters and her conflicted emotions, Christine allows him to stay overnight. But, in her heart, she knows he is not Walter. As she pushes authorities to keep looking, she learns that in Prohibition-era L.A., women don't challenge the system and live to tell their story. Slandered as delusional and unfit, Christine finds an ally in activist Reverend Briegleb, who helps her fight the city to look for her missing boy.

HIT US UP:

[katyavolkov]

When an adult forces a child to commit murder, the guilt never leaves the child. They always feel it was their doing. It’s never over.

[stephify]

This might be the most heartbreaking scene in the whole film.

[summer-joy]

The fact that the cops thought it was okay to make this kid dig smh as if HE wasn't a victim too

[tonyplaysthemambo]

If you read Road out of Hell, the book about Sanford's life you find out he was also violently molested by his uncle who used to threaten that he would kill Sandford's family as well if he helped. Sanford's grandparents knew that his uncle was doing things like this and even moved to LA and helped try to cover some of it up.

[EdithCardellini]

They left out the best line of this scene: "Dig...you put 'em in the ground, you can take 'em out."

[ksahanaskew]

Poor Sanford. Forced to do something horrible like that. Gordon Northcott got what he deserved for his actions.

[FreakingWierdxD]

i must say, such a tender age to perform so well!

[Will-cdtl]

Detective Lester became one of the most compassionately kind-hearted men after realizing what that poor boy had just had to re-live.

[mimikidman]

The music that starts from 1:30 is so touchy !

[eagleone]

The most satisfying scene in the movie: when the situation is finally realized by the police.

[aaranpan]

I thought that the young actor playing Sanford was the best in the film.

[loveshell]

Apart from Dev Patel's Lion, this is the most unforgettable film I have ever watched.

[ryanphelan]

“I weep for you, " the Walrus said:
“I deeply sympathize.”
With sobs and tears he sorted out
Those of the largest size,
Holding his pocket-handkerchief
Before his streaming eyes.

- Lewis Carroll, The Walrus and the Carpenter

[eightykakes]

I heard he went on to have a pretty good life (as possible). May he rest, it wasn’t his fault as he was a victim also.

[smudgegrudge]

I live in Mira Loma... Drive past the house this happened at every day when I go to work. :/

[ericabenham]

I remember seeing this in the theaters with my aunt and it was the most heartbreaking movie I’ve ever seen 😢

[stache]

0:42 the look on his face says it all 😳

[kawaiichannel]

My dad works with that guy Eddie Alderson !

[baglmonstr]

1:09 "Put out an APB"
What? This term didn't exist until sometime in the late 1940s. Always thought this was a glaring mistake in an otherwise great historical movie.

[FashionWithDimi]

The movie is about Gordon Stewart Northcott.
