You're innocent until proven otherwise. In some cases, proving another's innocence can be an inspiring life-long crusade. This is how real-life prisoners' rights advocate and lawyer, Betty Anne Waters inspired the Conviction movie. The 2010 Toronto Film Fest entry is a drama starred by Oscar winner, Hillary Swank, who plays as Betty Anne Waters—a single mother who went on to become a lawyer to prove his brother's innocence and bring him out of jail. Her brother, Kenneth Waters (Sam Rockwell) was wrongfully convicted for a murder in 1983. She struggled through law school and years of practice before she succeeded in his exoneration in 2001. The Conviction movie is set for a release in the U.S. on October 15, 2010.

Undoubtfully, cinematography has been my passion since a very young age. Even now, watching a new movie or series always prompts me to ask a lot of questions to the author. Thus, every little essay about a title is definitely not a spoiler, but rather an attempt to explore the idea.
