Changeling.

Today I’ve gone to the cinema with Laura, Cèlia, Oriol and Xavi. We’ve seen “El intercambio”. I think all of us have enjoyed the film; Laura was a little bit scared sometimes, but I think she has liked it too.

We are in 1828: Christine Collins works as an operator in a phone office and has a son, Walter Collins. They live together in their house, in Los Angeles. One day she must go to work and she promises Walter, that after they will go to the cinema. When Christine gets home Walter isn’t there. She calls the police and they start a research.
Nine months after, they give her a child who says he’s her son. She knows he isn’t Walter, but the police tell her that Walter has changed a lot and she’s too impressed, so she brings that child to her house.
While that strange boy is living with her, she’s trying to make the police believes her. In the past, women were very weak into society, and police takes her to a mental hospital, because she’s tarnishing the police’s reputation, saying they were wrong with Walter.
At the same moment, there’s a boy who has gone from LA with a familiar, Gordon Northcott. He’s mad and crazy and they live in a farm. They catch children and kill them. The boy helps him because if he doesn’t do it, Gordon will kill him. He tells all that to the police and they find all that killed and buried boys.
A priest helps her fighting against the police and a lawyer too, who’s going to defend her in a court. Gordon is declared guilty and he gets the death penalty.
A boy, who has been in that farm and could escape, goes to the police. He tells that he could do it because Walter helped him. He says that he hasn’t said anything in all that time because he was afraid, and now he misses his parents and wants to goes home. That takes a little bit of hope to Christine and she never stops searching Walter.

In real live it has happened too. I think it’s very shocking, don’t you? Well, I like that kind of films. It’s similar to “The boy in the striped pyjamas”, where they show you true stories. When the film finishes I feel a little bit sad because there appeare horrible facts and I can't realize how in the world it can happen things like that.
