The Pledge

Nevada cop Jack Nicholson is on the verge of retiring when a desperate woman begs him to find whoever's responsible for her seven-year-old daughter's murder. Unable to turn her down, he begins an unofficial investigation, sure that the man his former colleagues suspect is actually innocent - but as he draws closer to the killer, he becomes increasingly obsessed. Acclaimed and incisive thriller with director Sean Penn creating an evocative dark mood to match the slow pace of the tale, co-starring Robin Wright Penn, Benicio Del Toro, Patricia Clarkson and Aaron Eckhart
