Movie Haiku:Swinton stars as a mother desperately searching for answers after a tragedy. What did she know & when did she know it? And why, once her worst fears began to come true, didn't her husband (Reilly) see the danger too? Ramsay locks us into Eva's POV; we never know the real "Kevin" Ramsay creates from her 3 young actors, but she convinces us Eva's heartbreaking dilemma is real.
