You Think I Havn´t Thought Of That?
Based on the inspirational life of Betty Anne Waters, Conviction tells the story of the unstoppable love between a brother and sister and the lengths to which one woman will go to save her family. Betty Anne (Academy Award®-winner Hilary Swank) is a single mother of two in Massachusetts. Unemployed and undereducated, her family is her whole life. When her brother Kenny (Sam Rockwell) is convicted of a brutal murder that he says he didn’t commit, her life falls apart. Kenny is sentenced to life without parole and it seems like the end of the line. But Betty Anne won’t go down without a fight. In an incredible leap of faith, she devotes her entire life to proving his innocence. After completing her high school diploma, Betty Anne earns her B.A. and finally, goes to law school in an attempt to overturn her brother’s murder conviction by becoming his lawyer. With the help of her best friend, Abra (Minnie Driver), Betty Anne pours over the suspicious evidence compiled by Nancy (Melissa Leo), a small-town cop with a chip on her shoulder. Meticulously going over every element in the puzzle that led to Kenny’s arrest, Betty Anne moves to have the case reopened. But after eighteen years, can she save her big brother from losing all hope of freedom? Swank is incomparable as Betty Anne, bringing courage and grit to the role. As her brother Kenny, Rockwell is spectacular. His transformation from unencumbered young man to a hardened convict fighting for his life is executed masterfully. Under Tony Goldwyn’s subtle and nuanced direction, their unbreakable bond comes to life. A story of how the light of hope can shine through the darkest hours, Conviction is a moving and breathtaking experience.
