## Description

What are the limits of justice? Of social responsibility? “The Accused” takes a powerful and thought-provoking look at human nature and individual moral conscience, and a judicial process that treats the victim like a criminal > > > > > Jodie Foster gives an Oscar-winning performance as the hard-living, fiercely independent Sarah Tobias, who is gang-raped in the back of a neighbourhood bar. But that is only the beginning of her ordeal. Now Sarah finds herself battling the legal system not once but twice as she and her attorney (Kelly McGillis) go after both her attackers and the onlookers whose cheering fuelled and encouraged the assault...

Review: must see - it’s a fantastic film
Review: Great Powerful thought provoking movie key to our times. - I saw The Accused when it first came out quite some years ago. Jodie Foster phenomenal actress and film covering a deeply disturbing rape of a young woman (Jodie Foster) having to hustle her way through life to make ends meet, as some others at the back of a bar cheer along, but it is also the questions it raises in its multifaceted layers than unfold that makes it a critical watch for young people and adults. No wonder she won and was nominated for so quite a few awards for this film, and so well deserved. I think it is certainly worth an investment of anyone's time- age appropriate of course.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No! means No!
*by T***N on 25 May 2015*

This 1988 drama opens with a college student running out of a roadside bar and calling the police to report an assault on a girl, moments later a dishevelled girl runs out of the same bar. So begins the tale of Sarah Tobias (Jodie Foster) as she makes accusations of rape against three men whilst others cheer and goad them on. Enter Kathryn Murphy (Kelly McGillis) as the assistant district attorney assigned to the case. The problem is Sarah has a liberated lifestyle, drinking heavily, using pot, going to bars on her own and lives with her latest boyfriend in an isolated caravan. There is little chance of a conviction so Kathryn plea bargains for a lesser charge [which excludes rape] and the men are given a short sentence. Sarah feels betrayed and eventually Kathryn decides to bring charges of ‘solicitation to rape’ against those that cheered them on and the real film begins. For a film dealing with a vicious and violent rape, the sex is very low key and until the end we only get the spoken descriptions. This is a great strength of the film as we do not really know the extent of Sarah’ ‘willingness’ as Kathryn is always thrown onto her back foot as Sarah continually hides information, whereas many other films would have turned this into a sexploitation movie. Instead we get a clever and moving film in which Sarah has to prove she’s not the ‘trailer trash’ everyone thinks she is. This film was one of the first of its genre to deal with rape in a direct manner, and identified onlookers as just as guilty as the perpetrators of the crime. The movie also sparked a massive ’No! means No!” anti rape campaign bringing the crime fully into public view. Excellently acted, this is a definite ***** movie and shouldn’t be missed.
