Doubt (2008)

Posted on 00:36 by uthpa

Recommended
USA
Feature Film
Writer/Director: John Patrick Shanley
Cinematographer: Roger Deakins
Composer: Howard Shore
Cast: Meryl Streep, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Amy Adams, Viola Davis, Joseph Foster II, Mike Roukis

Streep, Hoffman, Adams, and Davis are all superb in Shanley’s adaptation of his own acclaimed, pleasingly ambiguous play, chronicling a nun’s attempts to prove that a priest had been abusing a young boy, but while Shanley the writer is successful, Shanley the director may well have watched one Garry Marshall film too many - gripping, never the less.
