Criterion is squeezing a few extra bucks out of you by not combining this disc with their excellent packaging of The Confession.
The Criterion Collection’s ecstatically assembled Blu-ray release of Costa-Gavras’s The Confession demands revisionist interrogation.
Costa-Gavras’s new film is more a funhouse-mirror panegyric (albeit on an exhausted topic) than the staid thriller promised by its press materials.
Sprinting ahead with an urgency that belies its remarkable attention to detail, Lucas Belvaux’s taut political thriller Rapt is a top-heavy but exceptional action film.
