Don't Say a Word (2001) is staring with Michael Douglas, Sean Bean, Brittany Murphy, Skye McCole Bartusiak, Guy Torry, a compelling, flawed story of true crime and obsession - and its flaws are part of what make it so intriguing. the movie can be very difficult to watch; it's haunting and incredibly sad.
