Directed by: Scott Cooper
Starring: Rosamund Pike, Ava Cooper, Scott Shepherd, Stella Cooper
Continuity mistake: Right before and during the ending shootout, the sky changes a few times, as does the sun angle.

Captain Joseph J. Blocker: Understand this: When we lay our heads down here, we're all prisoners.
Rosalie Quaid: If I did not have faith, what would I have?
