Reservation Road

Reservation Road by Terry George is part of the Special Presentations program.

A compelling tale about the lure of revenge and the power of redemption, the drama revolves around two fathers whose families and lives tragically converge with the death of a child in a car accident. In the aftermath, Ethan, the grieving father (Joaquin Phoenix) and Dwight, the man who hit the child, (Mark Ruffalo) each react in unexpected ways as their families struggle to cope and an emotional reckoning looms.The film also stars Jennifer Connelly and Mira Sorvino.

Terry George directed one of my favorite films, Hotel Rwanda, so I'm interested to see what he does with another emotional drama.
