Based on the true story of Trish Weir, an 18 year old woman who was kidnapped and raped in 1963. This is a powerful and emotional movie that deserves to be seen. Trish's bravery in pressing charges against her attacker, Ernesto Miranda, led to the landmark Supreme Court case that created Miranda rights. I didn’t know that these rights were named after a convicted rapist. Abigail Breslin shines as Trish, delivering a heart wrenching performance that might leave you reaching for tissues. It also features a strong supporting cast, including Luke Wilson and Andy Garcia, but Ryan Philippe's performance fails terribly. While the story itself is important, the movie does feel like a Lifetime Original. It felt bland and boring at times. The stats at the end are staggering: only 5 out of 1,000 cases are convicted. It's a harsh reminder that, 60 years later, this story still resonates. This was Donald Sutherland's last film before his passing, adding a poignant touch to an already powerful story.

I have heard about "read him his/her rights" but not upon recently i heard on a show did you ream him his Miranda Rights. Curiosity struck and i was start searching. I thought Miranda was the victim not the perpetrator! I'm glad that this movie was made, it is a standard "netflix" movie explaining how this was started and eventually turned out to be the most important thing in law enforcement. It was emotional and tense at some points, nice acting, surprising a bunch of "B" list tv show actors. This i a nice movie in order to get the history about the term. I don't know if it is true to the exact point but it was well made.
