Angelina Jolie and Clint Eastwood team up for 'Changeling' (

Mrs. Collins told her story clearly, stating that from the first
she was convinced the boy was not her missing son
She was subjected to an exhaustive examination by President Schweitzer, who wound up asking her what happened shortly before she was taken to the County Hospital.
I was requested to appear before Captain Jones, she said.
In the presence of several others, he said: What are you trying to do, make a lot of fools out of us all? Are you trying to shirk your duty as a mother and
have the State provide for your son? You are just a fool.

—Los Angeles Times, October 17, 1928,
reporting on Mrs. Christine Collins at Police Commission Hearings


CLINT EASTWOOD (Million Dollar Baby, Unforgiven, Letters from Iwo Jima) directs ANGELINA JOLIE (The Good Shepherd; A Mighty Heart; Girl, Interrupted) and JOHN MALKOVICH (Dangerous Liaisons, Beowulf, Burn After Reading) in an emotional and provocative drama based on actual events that forever transformed the city of Los Angeles. Changeling tells the story of one woman whose invincible spirit and refusal to surrender brought down a corrupt police department and ushered in a new era of dignity and equality under the law.
Los Angeles, March 1928: On a beautiful Saturday morning in a working-class suburb, single mother Christine Collins (Oscar® winner Angelina Jolie) says goodbye to her nine-year-old son, Walter, and leaves for her job as a telephone operator. But when Christine returns to their modest home, she is confronted with every parents worst nightmare: Her son has vanished.
An exhaustive and fruitless search ensues, but Walter has disappeared without a traceuntil five months later, when a child—claiming to be her boy—is returned by police who are eager to bask in the public-relations coup of reuniting mother and child. Dazed by the swirl of cops, reporters, photographers and her own conflicted emotions, Christine is persuaded to take the boy home. But in her heart, she knows he is not Walter.
As she pushes authorities to keep looking for her real son, Christine learns that in Prohibition-era L.A., women dont challenge the system and live to tell their story. Slandered as delusional and unfit, she finds an ally in community activist Reverend Gustav Briegleb (John Malkovich), who helps her fight the city to look for her missing boy.
Facing corrupt police who question her sanity and a skeptical public hungry for a fairy-tale ending, Christine desperately hunts for answers. As she searches, she becomes an unlikely heroine for the poor and downtrodden who have been systematically abused and swept aside by the police state that has gripped L.A. Now, one womans quest wont stop until she finds her sonunless those assigned to protect and serve silence her for good.
Joining director/producer Eastwood for the drama as producers are Imagine Entertainments Academy Award® winner BRIAN GRAZER (American Gangster, Cinderella Man, A Beautiful Mind) and Oscar® winner RON HOWARD (Frost/Nixon, Cinderella Man), as well as Oscar® nominee ROBERT LORENZ (Letters from Iwo Jima, Million Dollar Baby, Mystic River).
Joining Jolie and Malkovich is an accomplished cast that includes JEFFREY DONOVAN (televisions Burn Notice) as Captain J.J. Jones, the head of LAPDs juvenile investigation unit assigned to find Walter; MICHAEL KELLY (Broken English) as Detective Lester Ybarra, the officer who initially links Walters disappearance to another crime spree; COLM FEORE (Chicago) as LAPD Police Chief James E. Davis, the head of the corrupt department; JASON BUTLER HARNER (televisions John Adams) as Gordon Northcott, a serial killer who may have the clues to Walters disappearance; and AMY RYAN (Gone Baby Gone) as Carol Dexter, a fellow innocent prisoner who aids Christine during her lockdown in a mental ward

This is the type of movie you see once and cant watch again bc its too sad

[nobodysfool123]

this film is emotionally horrific - many of my friends that didn't know about Christine Collins didn't know true it really is, the fact she kept looking for him for the rest of her life is heart-breaking

The story is compelling. Too bad I'm too distracted by the fact that Angelina Jolie weighs 80 pounds, wears 3 pounds of makeup and swaths herself in sweaters. This is LA, 1928. A little realism goes a long way.

@realexhousewifeoc Bria has been missing since Jan. 7, 2011. He knows where he put her, but refuses to tell me, her friends or her siblings. He KNOWS she wanted her Mama since he started all of his lies when she was only 5 years old. She is not the first child he abused and then sent away to keep "his abusive hands clean". I told Bria I would not stop until I find her. I will keep my promise to my child. We need HELP.

The "System" has not changed much since 1921. I have been battling Corrupt Courts of "Family Courts" in Orange County, California since 2002. My children and I have suffered devestating blows which has caused Extreme Parental Alienation. Our Civil Rights and Due Process have been violated. My 14 year old disappeared after claiming father abused her. He then sent her away to Silence her Voice of Abuse.

Angelina deserved an Oscar for this role.
