Fracture is a 2007 American-German crime-mystery thriller film, with Anthony Hopkins and Ryan Gosling directed by Gregory Hoblit. It is the story of a cuckold who contrives a battle of wits with a young assistant district attorney by shooting his wife in the head with her lover's homicide-detective gun. After the shooter achieves a dismissal of the case on his staged lack of evidence, the assistant D.A. continues his obsessive mission to prove the guilt of the killer who had baited him into that very condition.
The film received generally positive reviews from critics, and was a box office success with worldwide revenues of $91.4 million after its $45 million production.
Theodore "Ted" Crawford (Anthony Hopkins), a wealthy and talented Irish aeronautical engineer in Los Angeles, discovers that his wife Jennifer (Embeth Davidtz) is having an affair with police detective Robert Nunally (Billy Burke).

You been scratching your name deep in us
Now we're nothing save
Let's just say, distracted
When questioned it's delay or defuse
Beaten down again
It's nothing new
I'd bring you with me
If you were human too
But I'm face to face with this silicon wall
Hold truth like steel
Don't want to lose what I feel
When every breath seems real
Pump me full of happy medium
We want something more
We the brighter, faster, harder generation
Are coming knocking at your door
Hacking down your door
Hold truth like steel
Don't want to lose what I feel
When every breath seems real
I know we can make it
I know that if we try
They'll fall
I just can't take it anymore
Another, another with nothing apart
Come back along the way
Been erasing your name out of me
Now I'm not safe
Let's just say I'm free
Hold truth like steel
Don't want to lose what I feel
When every breath seems real
Mold our thoughts like clay
Then send us off on our way
And it's the price we pay for our fear
