The story of a war veteran (Tommy Lee Jones), his wife (Susan Sarandon) and the search for their son, a soldier who recently returned from Iraq but has mysteriously gone missing, and the police detective (Charlize Theron) who helps in the investigation.

whew.......powerful stuff!
Extremely moving story about a father's search for his son, gone AWOL after returning from Iraq. Solid performances from all, particularly Susan Sarandon, albeit a relatively small role.
Very much a thought-provoking movie........
