    Upsetting but excellent.
    Even as a former prosecutor I would have liked to arrest the FBI and media people who ruined Richard Jewell's reputation, life.I wish at the end the movie clarified how he won some settlements against the offending newspaper and others. Clint Eastwood is truly amazing as an actor and a director.

    FAQ2

    • Is this movie based on a true story?
    • Is Mr Jewells's wife, Dana, portrayed in the film? I see no mention of her in the cast listing.
