When Rosamund Pike accepted her Golden Globe for her performance in
I Care a Lot, she quipped in her speech, "Maybe I just have to thank America's broken legal system for making it possible to make stories like this."
And by "stories like this" she means the new Netflix thriller directed by J Blakeson, which follows Marla Grayson, a legal-appointed guardian for the elderly who scams away their assets for her own profit.
I Care a Lot is packaged in dark humor (Pike's Best Actress win was in the Musical or Comedy category) but the reality behind it uncovers a bleak, ugly truth.
