Costa-Gavras
Description:Costa-Gavras (Z) puts the United States' involvement in South American politics under the microscope in this arresting thriller. An urban guerilla group, outraged at the counterinsurgency and torture training clandestinely organized by the CIA in their country (unnamed in the film), abducts a U.S. official (The Wages of Fear's Yves Montand) to bargain for the release of political prisoners; soon the kidnapping becomes a media sensation, leading to violence. Co-written by Franco Solinas (The Battle of Algiers), the electrifying State of Siege piercingly critiques the American government for helping institute foreign dictatorships while also asking difficult questions about the efficacy of radical violent acts to oppose such regimes.
State of Siege is a gripping political thriller directed by the acclaimed Costa-Gavras, now available in high-definition Blu-Ray format from Criterion. Set against the backdrop of 1970s Uruguay, the film delves into themes of government oppression and revolutionary resistance, following the kidnapping of an American official by leftist guerrillas. The movie stars Yves Montand, renowned for his powerful performances in films like Z and The Wages of Fear; O.E. Hasse; and Renato Salvatori. Director Costa-Gavras is celebrated for his masterful handling of politically charged narratives?his previous works such as Z (winner of the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film) and Missing have cemented him as a leading voice in international cinema.
