“Though sometimes melodramatic and formulaic, North Country is nonetheless a rousing, powerful story of courage and humanity.”

Charlize Theron, in nonglam mode, dominates this powerful drama about sexual harassment at a Minnesota iron mine in the early 90s.

Frances McDormand, as the lone female union rep, and Richard Jenkins, as Josie's angry miner dad, cut through the predictability.

Yet Theron's steady performance allows you to see something in Josey that baulks at her victim status.

Theron as usual is spot on, even if the drama feels a bit watered down.
