Woodsman, The

Kevin Bacon gives a brave, powerful and moving performance as a recently released convict haunted by the dark, shameful secret of his past. Freed after 12 years behind bars, Walter (Kevin Bacon) is determined to make a fresh start. He rents a small apartment and takes a job at the local lumberyard. Wary of giving away his guilty secret, Walter keeps to himself, but is befriended by Vickie (played by Bacon's real-life wife Kyra Sedgwick), a tough, no-nonsense woman who promises to see him for who he is, not what he has done. But Walter cannot escape his past. Despite having paid his debt to society, he is shunned by his family and is victimised at work when the terrible truth about his crime gets out. A local cop (Mos Def), meanwhile, is convinced that the time spent in prison has not changed Walter and hounds him mercilessly. When he meets a young girl in a neighbourhood park, Walter is forced to face his greatest fear - the prospect that his demons may have been reawakened. The film confronts the highly topical and extremely controversial issue of whether or not society can, or should, forgive the seemingly unforgivable.
