Deceived by Trust - 1995 ***

A young student confides to her guidance counsellor that her headmaster has been sexually abusing her.
Despite the counsellor's best efforts, the student is transferred to another school and the headmaster is let off with a metaphorical slap on the wrist.
To make matters worse, the student then recants her story leaving the counsellor to fight the battle for her alone, and many people automatically take the headmaster's side.
I enjoyed this and found it was extremely well acted.

Conversations with Other Women - 2005 ****

Short but effective. I love these films where you are introduced to only one or two main characters and then throughout the course of the film, you come to know their stories and their motives for their actions.
Eckhart was better than I imagined he would be, meeting Bonham Carter at a wedding (that of his sister, and her as the 7th bridesmaid). Throughout the evening they flirt, laugh, smile and reminisce about the past. Things take a drastic turn as the wedding winds down for the night, and they both must decide whether to go to bed together, or stay faithful to their respected other halves.
Very well acted. Gripping from start to finish and painfully realistic.
