Movie Review: The Secret in Their Eyes

Director Juan José Campanella

Year 2009

Language Argentinian

Verdict Good

Another haunting movie! No there is no literal ghosts; other than the haunting past.

You know sometime you start something and you don’t want to leave it in between, even if you don’t like it. It is like you have invested something and don’t want to waste it. That was my reason of keep watching this movie. I am not sure if I am glad with that decision or not.

This is a narrative by a retired clerk of District Attorney’s office. He tells us the story of an unsolved murder of a young lady. Incidentally he got involved with the investigations. The events following the investigation still trouble him in his sleep.

I do not want to give away much of the story in case you decide to watch. Just few words of caution, firstly the movie is slow just like our daily lives, and second the ending will haunt you for a long time. But it’s worth a watch.
