Directed by Todd Haynes, Dark Waters, motivated by a harrowing true story of a determined attorney, played by Mark Ruffalo, uncovers a dark secret that connects a growing number of unexplained deaths due to one of the world’s largest corporations – Dupont.
In unearthing the corruption, he risks everything—his future, family, and life—to expose the truth. Haynes’s directing credits include Wonderstruck, the Mildred Pierce Mini-series, and Far From Heaven.
Based on an article by Nathaniel Rich, Matthew Michael Carnahan wrote the first screenplay, which was finalized by Mario Correa.
The rest of the cast is impressive, including Anne Hathaway, Tim Robbins, Bill Camp, Victor Garber, Mare Winningham, William Jackson Harper, and Bill Pullman.
One of the two following clips is decent. The other one doesn’t say much of the story, but we see some excellent acting by Tim Robbins.
This clip crescendos into a massive scene at a public function. Victor Garber holds his own with Mark Ruffalo.
