About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a tense, dialogue-driven true story about moral courage under dictatorship, with much of the focus on interrogation and a show trial; Not for you if you need action, broad WWII scope, or a lighter watch.
Pros: gripping moral standoff; strong performances; powerful true story | Cons: interrogation-heavy runtime; limited wider context; predictable, somber tone
