Children Act, The
horizontal line

While a stoic, piano-playing British high court judge (Emma Thompson) makes life and death decisions, including whether to order a blood transfusion for a leukemia-stricken, 17-year-old son (Fionn Whitehead) of Jehovah Witness parents (Ben Chaplin and Eileen Walsh), in London in this poignant, heartbreaking, well-acted, realistic, 106-minute, 2017 film based on Ian McEwan's 2014 novel, she ignores the needs of her unhappy, neglected husband (Stanley Tucci) who is contemplating an affair with a mathematician colleague in a desperate effort to spark intimacy in his longtime marriage.
