The Brave One

“How many wrongs to make it right?”

A woman walks through New York at night, a pistol in her bag, and the city's shootings keep pointing back to her. She is Erica Bain (Jodie Foster), a radio host whose fiancé was beaten to death in an attack she barely survived. Neil Jordan films her in the dark, close and unhurried, so that every street feels like it is watching her back.
