MovieDescription: ABSOLUTE POWER STARRING: CLINT EASTWOOD, GENE HACKMAN, ED HARRIS, LAURA LINNEY, JUDY DAVIS, SCOTT GLENN, DENNIS HAYSBERT, E.G. MARSHALL. DIRECTED BY: CLINT EASTWOOD. A master thief on his last big heist witnesses, what turns out to be, a high profile murder case. The MPAA rates this R for violence, sexuality and language. While there is some swearing throughout the movie, most of it is in the beginning when things are extremely tense. The language, including a few strong swear words. A couple, high on alcohol and cheating on their spouses are involved in an extended scene of seductive foreplay, while fully clothed, that includes oral sex. This turns to rough foreplay and then to attempted rape, a fight, murder and a cover-up. There is also a car that goes over a cliff and two people are shot at, later in the story. In an underlying plot line, a father and daughter work out their strained relationship. Morality and many of it's nuances plays a major role in this movie.
