The score by Thomas Newman and the performances by Sissy Spacek and Tom Wilkinson really bring this film home

The very definition of suspenseful. I don’t remember who won Oscars in 2001, but Sissy Spacek, Marisa Tomei, and Tom Wilkinson were robbed.

A Greek chorus chimes in to relate the plot to Greek mythology in this quirky comedy.

A big-city lawyer arrives to help the survivors' and victims' families prepare a class-action suit, but his efforts only seem to push the townspeople further apart.

Suzanne Stone wants to be a world-famous news anchor and she is willing to do anything to get what she wants.

As she pursues her goal with relentless focus, she is forced to destroy anything and anyone that may stand in her way, regardless of the ultimate cost or means necessary.
