I finally saw the film Changeling. I know. I know. This really good movie came out back in 2008. Sometimes this happens, a movie sits on my Netflix queue, bumped down again and again by Oscar nominees and feel-good films. I’m glad it finally made its way to my mailbox.
In case you haven’t seen it, Changelingis set in Los Angeles, 1928. Angelina Jolie stars as Christine Collins, a single mother whose nine-year-old son goes missing while she is at work. She goes to the LAPD for help and five months later a boy is found in Illinois who fits the description of Collins’ son. After seeing him she insists that he is not her boy but the cops dismiss her. Collins joins Rev. Gustav Briegleb, a local pastor who has been using his radio program to call out the corruption of the LAPD. The police in turn use their power to silence and intimidate her. The story itself is gripping, all of the performances are solid and holding it together are staging, costumes, and music which transport the viewers back to Los Angeles in the late 1920s.
After seeing the film I kept thinking about Rev. Brieglaeb, played by John Malkovich. He is so sure of his convictions and completely confident when he speaks and acts. I was reminded of the Public Church course my first year
