DARK WATERS FYC (FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION)
DARK WATERS is a gripping legal thriller that delves into the real-life story of a corporate lawyer who uncovers a dark secret lurking within one of the world's largest chemical manufacturers. Based on a true story, the film not only highlights the challenges faced by those who dare to take on powerful entities but also emphasizes the importance of environmental justice and corporate accountability.
The film stars Mark Ruffalo in the lead role of Robert Bilott, a dedicated attorney who finds himself caught in a web of corporate deceit, as he battles the DuPont chemical company, whose practices have adverse effects on both human health and the environment. Ruffalo's portrayal brings depth to Bilott’s relentless pursuit of the truth and the moral dilemmas he faces along the way.
The supporting cast includes notable performances from Bill Camp, Anne Hathaway, and Victor Garber. Each character adds layers to the story, showcasing the ripple effects of corporate irresponsibility on individuals and families, emphasizing that the fight against such power is not a solitary endeavor.
DARK WATERS not only captivates with its intense narrative but also serves as a stark reminder of the real-world implications of unchecked corporate practices. The film explores themes of environmental pollution, corporate greed, and the tenacity of the human spirit in the face of adversity. It asks difficult questions about the cost of ambition and the sacrifices required to bring justice for those unable to fight for themselves.
Key elements of the film's impact include:
Real-world inspiration: Based on a New York Times Magazine article by Nathaniel Rich, the film illustrates the long-standing issues of environmental contamination and its effects on communities.
Authentic representation: The filmmakers prioritized accuracy by involving real-life figures such as Robert Bilott himself, who serves as a consultant to ensure the portrayal remains true to the events that transpired.
Social commentary: The film encourages viewers to reflect on their roles as consumers and the implications of their choices on corporate behavior and ecological sustainability.
As awards season approaches, DARK WATERS stands as a compelling contender, showcasing not just exceptional acting and direction but also a significant narrative that resonates with contemporary audiences. The film serves as an urgent call to action, urging viewers to consider their responsibility toward both the environment and their fellow citizens.
For those interested in the intersections of law, environmentalism, and corporate ethics, DARK WATERS is an essential viewing experience that not only entertains but also enlightens.

For Blu-Ray Player
WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
