Hungarian director István Szabó’s 1985 Colonel Redl [Oberst Redl] [Redl Ezredes] is a startlingly powerful film of a subject already familiar from John Osborne’s stage play A Patriot for Me, with a clever screenplay based […]
Shining Through (1992, Michael Douglas, Melanie Griffith, Liam Neeson) – Classic Movie Review 9189
