Ein mutiger Weg (2007)
Am 23. Januar 2002 wird der Asien-Chefkorrespondent des Wall Street Journal, Daniel Pearl (Dan Futterman), der nach dem 11. September aus der Krisenregion Pakistan berichtet, von Al-Qaida-Terroristen in Karatschi entführt. Als seine schwangere Frau Mariane (Angelina Jolie) davon erfährt, versucht sie erschüttert alles in ihrer Macht stehende zu tun, um ihn freizubekommen. Diplomatenunterhändler Randall Bennett (Will Patton) steht ihr vor Ort bei, wo sie schwere Rückschläge hinnehmen muss und den Tod ihres Mannes nicht verhindern kann. Basierend auf Mariane Pearls Memoiren dringt Michael Winterbottom nach In This World und Road to Guantanamo ein drittes Mal nach Pakistan vor. Trotz Hollywoodstar Jolie behält er abermals den Stil eines authentischen und sehr bewegenden Dokudramas bei.
