The Grim Sleeper

I'm a big fan of mysteries and true crime, but I had no idea this movie would be so good! Really blew me away with the way it showed the impacted families throughout, the awakening of the investigating officer to how much each life mattered. I found myself feeling all the things the reporter felt - frustrated, heartbroken, hopeful. The acting in this movie was stellar from everyone. The scene at the end when the detective is raking the killer over the coals in the interrogation room was really emotional, I felt my heart in my throat as I fought tears. This movie really hammers the truth home that every life is valuable, every person matters. The fact that many of these women were prostitutes did not diminish their value has human beings or negate the fact that they had people who loved them. They mattered. And they deserved for their killer to be brought to justice. Really, really good movie.
