Additional Information
Director Sean Penn's (THE INDIAN RUNNER, THE CROSSING GUARD) third film features Jack Nicholson as Jerry Black, a retired detective whose final case ultimately causes his slow descent into madness. In the midst of his retirement party, Black decides to join Detective Stan Krolak (Aaron Eckhart) on one last case. The molested body of an eight-year-old girl is found in the Nevada mountains. When the chief suspect turns out to be a mentally challenged Native American (Benicio Del Toro), Black is not convinced of his guilt despite his confession. Unable to forget the promise he made to the dead girl's mother that he would find her daughter's killer, Black becomes determined to catch a monster that no one else believes is out there. His resolve increases when he realizes that two similar unsolved murders occurred in the same area in recent years, and the case hits closer to home when Black befriends Lori (Robin Wright Penn), a waitress with a threatening ex-husband, and her eight-year old daughter, Chrissy (Pauline Roberts). Nicholson is compelling in this study of a man whose obsession slowly eats away at his sanity as he attempts to keep his promise by any means necessary.
Reviews
New York Times - ...Deepily, scarily rewarding....[Mr. Nicholson is] magnificently understated....[The film] reveals Mr.Penn to be a great director of actors with a mind-reading ability to discover a character's truth in the tiniest dramatic nuances..., Los Angeles Times - ...[Penn] demonstrates a directorial focus and intensity, plus the ability to create mood and ambience while getting a message across..., Variety - ...Absorbing dramatically....Nicholson is outstanding....Everything is kept on a tight leash, and very effectively so..., USA Today - "...The movie wouldn't be imaginable without its commanding star. Nicholson is in virtually every scene underplaying to great effect..."-- 3 out of 4 stars, Sight and Sound - ...A consummate work of screen adaptation, and further evidence that there is precious little Sean Penn can't achieve on film, whether before or behind the lens..., Entertainment Weekly - ...[A] haunting and ravaged performance by Jack Nicholson....Penn is a true talent...He's got a real flair -- for visual suspense, for landscape, [and] for holding his actors in the throes of slow-motion breakdown..., Movieline - ...Rourke makes a vivid impression....Nicholson's subdued, haunted performance is one of his best, and Robin Wright Penn is surprisingly good...

    Good picture quality. Like Nicholson's other obsessive character films from the 1990s, he tends to dominate proceedings, rather than interact with others. The main supporting cast have all won Oscars, or come close. Penn tells the story more through action and observation, while the dialogue is often secondary. This is really top work, and it's a shame Penn hasn't directed more. Well worth watching.
