Erin gets emotionally invested after meeting with several families who have been poisoned because of PG&E and their practices about dumping their chemicals.

This is a good movie - And Erin (we're on a first name basis) does an ad on tv here and when she introduces herself, I'm always like "wow that is not how I pictured her...why is that..." and then I remember because I'm picturing Julia.
I love Julia Roberts- she was absolutely fabulous in this movie!
Great movie!!!! LOVE it!
