Story: |
When they were kids growing up together in a rough section of Boston,
Jimmy Markum (Sean Penn), Dave Boyle (Tim Robbins) and Sean Devine
(Kevin Bacon) spent their days playing stickball on the street, the way
most boys did in their blue-collar neighborhood of East Buckingham.
Nothing much out of the ordinary ever happened, until a moment's decision
drastically altered the course of each of their lives forever.
Twenty-five years later, the three find themselves thrust back together
by another tragic event - the murder of Jimmy's 16-year-old daughter
(Emmy Rossum). Now a cop, Sean is assigned to the case and he and his
partner (Laurence Fishburne) are charged with unraveling the seemingly
senseless crime. In the wake of the sudden and terrible loss of his child,
Jimmy's mind becomes consumed with revenge - and his own plans to find the
killer.
Caught up in the maelstrom is Dave, now a lost and broken man fighting to
keep his demons at bay. As the investigation creeps closer to home, his wife
Celeste (Marcia Gay Harden) becomes consumed by suspicion and fear, while
Jimmy's wife Annabeth (Laura Linney) draws her family tighter together in
order to weather the storm. A taut, multi-layered drama, Mystic River is
a story of friendship, family, and innocence lost too soon.
