REVIEW | Conviction (2010)



The incredible true story of Betty Anne Waters who put herself through law school in order to free her innocent brother from charges of a brutal murder. This movie is another testament to the power of love, how it never gives up until the very end, resulting in a kind of conviction that nothing is impossible.

Two-time Academy Award winner Hilary Swank, as always, has this transformative power, gripping you into the real-life character she portrays, a character driven by her remarkable love and trust in her brother's innocence despite his history of violence, theft, and minor brushes with the law.

Dramatic, touching, heartbreaking and triumphant, Conviction pays tribute to extraordinary people like Betty Anne Waters, will make you question yourself how far will you go to save the life of someone you love, and it gives voice to the hundreds of convicted innocents.
