Flags of Our Fathers
I frontlinjen er det ikke tid til frykt. For 70 000 amerikanske soldater ble slaget om Iwo Jima noe mer enn vendepunktet i Andre verdenskrig det ble vendepunktet i livet deres. I dette eposet som New York Times kalte «et dramatisk skue» tar den Oscar®-belønte regissøren* Clint Eastwood for seg den viktigste følelsesmessige sannheten når det gjelder krig: Soldatene sloss kanskje for fedrelandet sitt, men de dør for vennene sine. Kritikerne hyllet Flags of Our Fathers som en utrolig sterk og provoserende film, en fantastisk bragd. Filmen er basert på en sann og viktig historie om mot og heltedåder en historie som fortjener å bli fortalt og husket.

Advise and Consent
Allen Drury's best-selling novel is transformed into this probing examination of the lust for power in the halls of Congress. An all-star cast is paced by Henry Fonda (in a perverse bit of casting) as the shady politico who's nominated for U.S. Secretary of State. Don Murray plays the head of the committee reviewing the nomination, an honest Senator with a homosexual skeleton rattling in his closet. George Grizzard is the strident McCarthyite who leads the attack against Murray in support of Fonda. Walter Pidgeon gives a nuanced performance as the virtuous Majority leader, Charles Laughton is the 'Southernsmooth rebellious solon" and Franchot Tone plays the ailing, testy president of dubious virtue who allows cheap conniving and lies told under oath (shades of Richard Nixon). Add Gene Tierney, Peter Lawford, Lew Ayres and Burgess Meredith to make a stunning cast complete. This probing examination of the seedy underbelly of politics is arguably one of the best films of its genre ever made, and certainly one of the most important and effective of Otto Preminger's career.
