Story:
Netflix drama directed by Nora Fingscheidt. The Unforgivable (2021) follows Ruth Slater (Sandra Bullock), who after being released from prison after serving a sentence for a violent crime, re-enters a society that refuses to forgive her past. Facing severe judgment from the place she once called home, her only hope for redemption is finding the estranged younger sister she was forced to leave behind.
We’ll add the best quotes once the movie is released and we’ve had a chance to watch it, but for now, here’s a small selection.
