Sins of Our Fathers

What could have been a screaming anti-Catholic screed instead is a balanced, absorbing chronicle of the sex-abuse scandal that rocked the Boston archdiocese in 2002. Ted Danson is outstanding as the canny attorney for the plaintiffs; and Christopher Plummer gives a studied performance as Cardinal Bernard Law. Directed by Dan Curtis and written by Thomas Michael Donnelly. Brian Dennehy, Daniel Baldwin, Ellen Burstyn, Chris Bauer, Thomas Mitchell, Aidan Devine, Hugh Thompson.
