Changeling (2008)

Not to be confused with the beloved George C. Scott thriller The Changeling (1980), director Clint Eastwood’s Changeling (2008) studies Angelina Jolie as the distraught parent of a missing child in 1920s Los Angeles. When the LAPD return a boy to the grieving mom, it becomes apparent soon enough that he is not her son, but the mother’s protests lead only to misery and an official cover-up. Changeling is heavy-going to be sure, but Angelina lightens the darkest corners of this downbeat tale as only she can: by showing off her beyond-perfect butt cheeks.
