Movie Haiku:Another homerun for the amazing Blanchett. She's a psychic living in a small Southern town, widowed & raising three sons alone. Someone disappears & the police reluctantly turn to her when other leads are exhausted. Plot may be predictable, but the terrific cast turns this into a genuinely creepy thriller.
