Movie: Mystic River

I haven't seen this year's Clint Eastwood Oscar-contender Million-Dollar Baby yet (although I know the "twist,"), but I caught up on last year's Eastwood Oscar-contender Mystic River. It was a decent story, and I have to admit that Clint's direction was great. It was more of a character exploration than the murder mystery surface plot, and very well acted too. Not a type of movie I would watch more than once, but certainly worth catching the first time around.
