In the Valley of Elah

A Kansas motel past midnight, a son’s uniform laid neatly on the floor. His parents arrive the next morning to find the base reporting him AWOL. After the Army releases him in error, a detective pieces together the hours between discharge and disappearance. Bloodstained boots lead toward a firing range. A post-Travis Bickle Paul Haggis war drama that listens more than it screams.
