Rosewater (out Feb 19) is a Jon Stewart directed drama about an Iranian-born journalist covering the 2009 Iranian election protests. He was arrested by the authorities, accused of being an American spy, and placed in solitary confinement. It's a little rough around the edges but a great look at the risks that many journalists face in bringing us important news. Grade: B+.
