Movie: CONVICTION
Jan's Rating: 10
Time: 1 Hour 46 Minutes
Jan's Opinion: Cousin Bonnie and I saw this movie yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed it. Hillary Swank was perfect for the role of Betty Anne Waters, who put herself through law school for the only purpose of clearing her brother (played by Sam Rockwell) of a murder he didn't commit. Her best friend, whom she met in law school, was played by Minnie Driver, a great role for her as well. Juliette Lewis did an outstanding job of playing one of the people who framed Betty's brother for the murder. This is a true story and Betty Anne Waters actually went back to waitressing after clearing her brother. I would not be surprised to see this movie up for an Academy Award.

- I am a retired grandma who loves to read mystery books and go to movies. One of my daughters set up a movie blog for me and then I decided that since I read so often, I wanted to also set up a book blog. 99% of the books I read are mysteries and some of my favorite authors are James Patterson, John Sanford, Stuart Woods, Nora Roberts, Karen Robards, Sandra Brown, Catherine Coulter, and Janet Evanovich. Hope you enjoy my reviews!
