I wasn't disappointed in this movie, although it actually used only a few of the high points of the book. The case is true and brings out the very real issues of water pollution and the responsibilities of corporations. The theme is the realities of law today. Well cast with some excellent performances by Robert Duval, the lawyer for Beatrice Foods Corporation and John Travolta, the lawyer from the people of Woburn, MA, this film that will leave you thinking long after you have left the theater. Recommended.
