If you loved The Client, try In the Valley of Elah
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theyboth carry the raw mood tag, and they sit in Crime / Drama / Mystery / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Client, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What In the Valley of Elah is
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.
