Tom McCarthy, who co-wrote and directed the 2016 Best Picture winner, “Spotlight,” returns to the world of thrillers inspired by real-life events with the Focus Features film “Stillwater.” Matt Damon portrays Bill Baker, a down-on-his-luck Oklahoma roughneck whose daughter Allison (Abigail Breslin) has been convicted of murdering her girlfriend and is now serving her sentence in a Marseilles jail.
