【An explicit look at rape culture and rape apologists.】
Jodie Foster portrays Sarah Tobias - a hard, tough, fast talking little lady.
A little rough around the edges, sometimes just a little too sexy for her own good. Nevertheless, no one deserves the treatment she received.
Kelly McGillis plays the part of her attorney, Kathryn Murphy - soft and sensual, the complete opposite of Tobias, but her spokesperson just the same.
Realizing her case is weak, due to Tobias's character, Murphy agrees to a plea bargain, reducing the crime to reckless endangerment.
Everywhere she goes in town she is confronted by the scum suckers that mock her.
She is one ticked off lady!!
A bond forms between these ladies as Tobias tearfully admits to Murphy that all she wants is for those guilty to admit their guilt.
Attempts by the opposing attorneys to paint Tobias as the town $lut, which indeed she may well be, fail in the end and she is victorious in a way by bringing the onlookers to trial and winning.
Although she still does not get her verdict of guilty of rape, she is still somewhat appeased by the fact that the truth finally comes to light.
A movie a good deal of people would benefit from seeing, it reveals what the word "NO" is supposed to mean.
It also shows that often times the victim becomes the true victim of the crime as they are generally painted as the perpetrator. Probably the reason most rapes are not reported and often swept under the rug and shunned by the public.
A definitely violent movie but a good one. Foster carries the entire movie with her hard hitting gamine like appearance.
I think men who sexually violate women are a real low form of life and are not even worth trusting or dealing with period.
They do not deserve to be treated with respect just like what they did to the young woman. It's like, they were trying to destroy her spiritually and that is just wrong.
Men who do this deserve to be locked up behind bars for a very long time.

ジョディフォスターの代表作だと思います。羊たちの沈黙も良いですが、お勧めです。
レイプ犯罪がリアルに描かれている作品です。 ジョディ・フォスターの迫真の演技はアカデミー主演女優賞も納得です。
