Focusing on the leak of the Pentagon Papers in 1971, The Post is a stunning film that plays like
a crackerjack suspense thriller but is about nothing less than the survival of the First Amendment and the right of a free press.
Two years after making his U.S. debut with the
crackerjack kidnapping drama «Prisoners,» French - Canadian director Denis Villeneuve ups his own ante with «Sicario,» a blisteringly intense drug - trade thriller that combines expert action and
suspense with another uneasy inquiry into the emotional consequences of violence.
