Review:
- An absolutely fantastic film about an underdog’s fight for recognition, fortune and fame
- Greg Kinnear plays the role of the real-life Robert Kearns, an engineering professor who claimed to have invented the intermittent windshield wiper (used on practically all cars) in his basement, only to have his idea stolen by Ford Motors and who goes on to represent himself in court in a lengthy legal battle
- The true life story of Kearns was represented very well on the silver screen
- Kinnear’s performance was outstanding in the film
- Overall, we thought this was one awesome movie that deserved a far wider release and significantly more recognition…just like Robert Kearns
Rating: 5/5
