A Must Watch film - Dark Waters

Original Quill wrote:Mark Ruffolo is a weak leading man.  Should'a put Harrison Ford in there.

BTW, hasn't this script been done before?  Erin Brockovich, I believe was the featured player, played by Julia Roberts.  It's about how Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) dumped about 370 million gallons of chromium-tainted wastewater into unlined wastewater spreading ponds around the town of Hinkley, California, located in the Mojave Desert.

Remove the location to the east, turn Erin into a male lawyer, and make the bad guy Dupont Chemical...and presto, you've got your remake.
