Fracture - available in DVD

If you like Anthony Hopkins in Hannibal Lecter-like roles, you know, the creepily evil types, then you’ll like “Fracture.” “Fracture” is a movie that positions its protagonist (Ryan Gosling) and antagonist (Hopkins) on a continuum where each possesses the same trait: pride. Of course it soon becomes a contest of wills. Millionaire Ted Crawford (Hopkins) loves his wife, but when he discovers that she is having an affair, he develops a plan where he kills her, torments her lover, and gets away with it. Willy Beachum (Gosling), the cocky DA who takes on Crawford’s case, has just been invited to join a prestigious law firm so he isn’t paying attention. “Fracture” deals with some interesting issues – ego, moral choices, redemption. And with Hopkins in the lead, this movie is certainly worth seeing.
