Last year, the whole world was amazed by the storyline of Justine Triet’s Anatomy of a Fall, a legal drama about a writer trying to prove innocence in her husband's death. It demonstrated the potential toxicity of not only the failed relationship, but the world around us, when people get blamed for crimes even when there’s not enough proof.
There is a 2019 movie of the same genre, telling a similar story, but on much a larger scale. Its plot revolves around Robert Bilott, the real-life environmental attorney, known for the lawsuits against the chemical company DuPont after they contaminated the whole town in West Virginia with unregulated chemicals.
This premise seems to be boring enough to put you asleep with a bunch of pretentious speeches about the need to defend our ecology. However, this drama is not only going to keep you awake, but closely follow the DuPont case.

A corporate defence lawyer takes on an environmental lawsuit against a chemical company in this emotionally charged and decidedly understated drama from acclaimed director Todd Haynes.
Written by Mario Correa and Matthew Michael Carnahan, Dark Waters is based on a New York Times magazine article titled The Lawyer Who Became DuPont’s Worst Nightmare by Nathaniel Rich.
Robert Bilott (Mark Ruffalo) is a respected corporate lawyer working with big chemical companies helping them pollute without breaking the law. When he is approached by West Virginia farmer Wilbur Tennant (Bill Camp) regarding a number of unexplained deaths on his farm which he blames DuPont – one of the world’s largest corporations – Robert is conflicted about representing Wilbur against his own interests.
Robert soon finds himself battling with his own conscience and deep catholic faith leading him to question the work he’s been doing until now. Against his better Judgement and that...

In this gripping real-life thriller, Mark Ruffalo plays a lawyer who takes on the company that dumped toxic chemicals in West Virginia for decades
Todd Haynes is such a distinctive authorial voice in American cinema, a genius from left field, notably addressing identity and sexuality, and with an interest in fantasy, pastiche and the vicissitudes of period detail. Dark Waters is in so many ways out of character for him: a straight-ahead, true-life legal thriller, fluently adapted by screenwriters Mario Correa and Matthew Michael Carnahan from a New York Times magazine article by Nathaniel Rich.

The USC Libraries Scripter Awards honor the year’s best film and television adaptations, as well as the works on which they are based. This group of academics, industry professionals, and critics (for which I vote) is often predictive of the Adapted Screenplay Oscar race.
While Netflix dominated this year’s nominations with three adapted scripts, for movies “The Irishman” (Steve Zaillian adapted Charles Brandt’s “I Heard You Paint Houses”) and “The Two Popes” (Anthony McCarten adapted his own play), and Susannah Grant, Michael Chabon, and Ayelet Waldman’s limited series “Unbelievable,” the winners were Amazon’s “Fleabag” (play and series author Phoebe Waller-Bridge was in London), and Sony’s “Little Women,” whose scribe Greta Gerwig gave a heartfelt speech. This could presage another win at the WGA Awards next week and on Oscar night in the Adapted Screenplay category.

Greta Gerwig’s script for “Little Women” has won the USC Libraries Scripter Award for best movie adaptation and “Fleabag” has taken the television award.
The winners were announced Saturday night at USC’s Edward L. Doheny Jr. Memorial Library.
“Little Women” topped “Dark Waters,” “The Irishman,” “Jojo Rabbit,” and “The Two Popes.” All but environmental drama “Dark Waters” are contending for the Academy Award in the adapted screenplay category.
Gerwig, who also directed, won the Scritper award in conjunction with Louisa May Alcott, author of the iconic 1868 novel about the lives of the four March sisters in a small New England town during the 1860s.
“This is extraordinary. I am very honored. I didn’t attend USC, but I truly love this library,” Gerwig said. “‘Little Women’ is the book of my life. I can’t recall a time when I didn’t know who the March sisters were.

“Dark Waters,” “The Irishman,” “Jojo Rabbit,” “Little Women” and “The Two Popes” have been nominated as the best film adaptations of 2019 by the USC Libraries Script Awards, which were announced on Wednesday morning.
The Scripter Award celebrates both the screenwriters of film and television adaptations and the original authors of the material on which they are based – which means that the nomination for “Little Women,” example, goes both to writer-director Greta Gerwig and to 19th-century novelist Louisa May Alcott, who wrote the 1868 novel on which the film is based.
“The Two Popes” is the only nominee in which the screenwriter and original author are the same person, with Anthony McCarten adapting his play “The Pope.” His script was judged to be an original screenplay rather than an adaptation by the Writers Guild of America, but the Academy classifies it as an adaptation for Oscar contention, and the Scripters agreed.

In Dark Waters, the searing new drama from director Todd Haynes (Carol), Mark Ruffalo plays real-life attorney Rob Bilott, a rising star at a large corporate law firm whose job has been defending chemical companies.

Focus Features is looking to flood the specialty box office with their latest title Dark Waters from director Todd Haynes. The film, which stars Mark Ruffalo and Anne Hathaway, is based on a true story about attorney Rob Bilott (Ruffalo) who uncovers a dark secret that connects a growing number of unexplained deaths to one of the world’s largest corporations.
Dubbed a legal thriller, the film written by Mario Correa and Matthew Michael Carnahan, uses Nathaniel Rich’s 2016 New York Times Magazine article “The Lawyer Who Became DuPont’s Worst Nightmare” as a jumping-off point to tell the story about Bilott, who risks everything in his life to expose the truth about the contaminated water supply and the big company that is responsible — something that is still affecting the community today.

Far From Heaven: Haynes Mounts Modest Environmental Drama
In the oft-prestigious subgenre of environmental thrillers, particularly those detailing the grossly inhuman actions of powerful corporations and corrupt government agencies, Dark Waters, the latest offering from perennial auteur Todd Haynes, feels a bit auxiliary. Packing decades worth of pertinent details into the West Virginia Dupont scandal, wherein the “forever chemicals” utilized for Teflon saturated the local population’s water supply, causing thousands of cases of cancer (not to mention the considerable environmental side effects on the landscape and livestock), Haynes and scribes Matthew Michael Carnahan and Mario Correa, inspired by a New York Times article by Nathaniel Rich, craft somewhat of a predictable disappointment in what plays like the visual aid to a Wikipedia entry on the events.…...

There’s something wrong with the land in West Virginia, and Mark Ruffalo is on the case. That’s the essence of “Dark Waters,” an urgent and respectable dramatization of corporate environmental defense attorney Rob Bilot’s saga as he takes on the Dupont corporation for dumping toxic waste. Directed by Todd Haynes as a slow-burn accumulation of speechifying and paranoid research, “Dark Waters” rambles through Bilot’s dreary detective work as he exposes an environmental hazard with the potential to impact the entire planet.
that drags at just over two hours, “Dark Waters” marks the most conventional directing effort in Haynes’ career. Nevertheless, the central concerns of Ruffalo’s passion project (he also produced) ensure a gravitas throughout that grounds the drama in profound concerns. Wearing a frozen scowl as he zips from damaged farmland to his ambivalent Cincinnati law firm, Ruffalo’s troubled protagonist stops just shy of...

Wearing a frozen scowl as he zips from damaged farmland to his ambivalent Cincinnati law firm, Ruffalo’s troubled protagonist stops just shy of...

Legal dramas lionize those who rise above the allure of cynicism and greed. Sometimes it’s the victims of grand social injustice or the lawyers who help ensure their chance at public retribution. Either way, in almost every case the ethics of heroism wins the day because justice finally becomes tangible.
Todd Haynes understands that the justice system hardly ever works in such cut and dry terms. Highfalutin jargon and endless procedural bureaucracy render the judicial process intimidating and isolating for the very citizens it’s supposed to help. With Dark Waters, the rare biopic that refuses to embrace climactic closure, he elides sentimental and rousing conventions one would associate with courtroom epics.
Instead, Haynes presents a decade-spanning marathon of civic awakening and endurance, one founded on endless hard work and sacrifice. Instead of depicting some disingenuous sprint toward good-natured epiphany, Dark Waters is all about the long game, surveying...

“The system is rigged,” corporate defense attorney turned protector of the people, Rob Bilott (Mark Ruffalo) vents angrily to his wife Sarah (Anne Hathaway) in a Benihana’s parking lot, fourteen painstaking years of legal warfare against one of the largest chemical conglomerates on the planet propelling his rage. Bilott is the real-world hero of Todd Haynes’ new environmental justice film “Dark Waters,” a Matthew Michael Carnahan and Mario Correa adaptation of the 2016 New York Times article by Nathaniel Rich, “The Lawyer Who Became DuPont’s Worst Nightmare.” It begins as a slow-burn procedural and morphs exponentially into an eco-political thriller, that’s earnest, sometimes a little hokey, but always engaging.

Anne Hathaway and Mark Ruffalo have teamed up for a powerful new drama.
The Focus Features film, directed by Todd Haynes (Carol, Far from Heaven), is based on the true story of the tenacious corporate defense attorney Robert Bilott, who took on an environmental lawsuit against the world’s largest chemical company at the time, DuPont de Nemours, Inc.
For years, Bilott — played by Ruffalo — defended large chemical companies, including DuPont. However, when a small cattle farmer called him for help, saying that he believed DuPont was responsible for a growing number of unexplained deaths among his cattle, Bilott found...

Focus Features surprised the industry when it announced in late August that Todd Haynes’ true-crime drama “Dark Waters” was getting a prime theatrical release right in the middle of awards season. The movie, which stars Mark Ruffalo and Anne Hathaway, began filming in mid January of this year and will be turned around fast for a November debut. While many expected the movie to be a part of Focus’ 2020 slate, the studio is in need of a dominant Oscar contender this year and Haynes is a reliable auteur.
“Dark Waters” stars Ruffalo as a tenacious attorney who uncovers a dark secret that connects a growing number of unexplained deaths to one the world’s largest chemical corporations. In the process, he risks everything — his future, his family, and his own life — to expose the truth. The supporting cast includes Hathaway, Tim Robbins, Bill Camp, Mare Winningham, Victor Garber, William Jackson Harper,...
