Reservation Road

CrimeDramaThriller102 min

After a hit-and-run leaves one father’s son dead and another man behind the wheel, two families are pulled into the aftermath of the same night. Joaquin Phoenix is the grieving parent, consumed by loss and increasingly fixed on finding the driver, while Mark Ruffalo’s father carries the guilt and fear of what he’s done. As their lives begin to intersect, the damage spreads beyond the accident itself, reaching into marriages, children, and the legal system. Reservation Road keeps its focus on how private grief and hidden responsibility push both men toward an unavoidable reckoning.
