Costa-Gavras sets his sights on Latin America in this superbly-constructed political-thriller that raises questions about the United States’ complicit involvement in counterinsurgency, torture and violence.
Costa-Gavras paints a desolate and powerful political picture of an innocent high-ranking communist party official being interrogated and tortured in service of the frightening if absurd Soviet bloc show trials of the 1950s.
Superb political mystery-thriller that is stimulating, and featuring magnetic performances from Jack Lemmon and Sissy Spacek.
