Reel Suave | In the Valley of Elah

The story is based on actual events in 2001 in Tennessee, and its title references the mythic tale of David and Goliath set at a time when the rules of engagement were different than the present. Mike’s PDA which showed flashback video and imagery may make the film look like an independent film, but its message and execution is on a grander scale and not merely with dialogue. With stunning visuals, much is conveyed by silence, expression, or simple body language. You’d have to be severely cold hearted not to shed a few tears because I was reminded of how much unimaginable suffering the war has caused to millions now knowing who were much to blame.
