Bulletin: Indian movie dramatizing the plight of Rajesh and Nupur Talwar set for world premier today at the Toronto International Film Festival; Commentary on the film by Cameron Bailey, Canadian film critic and festival programmer, who has been the artistic director of the Toronto International Film Festival since 2012. "Despite a lack of evidence, Aarushi's parents are convicted of the gruesome crimes. Yet the case is riddled with ambiguities that leave more than a shadow of doubt as to whether justice has been served. Employing the structure of a classic whodunit, director Meghna Gulzar reconstructs the botched police investigation, the subsequent inquiry into the case, and the trial by public perception that took place when Aarushi's grieving parents were taken to court. As we jump between various accounts of the night of the murders, the mystery deepens, and the search for truth takes on a mounting sense of urgency. Khan plays the lead detective with wit, depth and an engaging unpredictability. It's a performance in keeping with the multifaceted nature of the film. Guilty is a taut and compelling thriller that's also a scathing look at the roles played by the media and judicial bureaucracy in upending the scales of justice."
