The Spanish Prisoner (1997)
A boy scout grows up
I gave it a 9/10 because it was a good mystery with lots of twists and turns - until you get used to "trust no one". Rebecca Pidgeon was most believable as was Campbell Scott as the boy scout. I could believe he would act as he did - at least until he met Ms. Da Silva - but by then I guess that he was too caught up in everything to be too concerned. Good watch.
The Field (1990)
A triumph for Richard Harris!
Spectacular movie. As tough as this movie is, it is completely engrossing. Each character (except that played by Berenger) is just so believable. The Tom Berenger part is just so shallow that it needs better writing or better acting. The cinematography allows you to feel the ambience of the Irish countryside (cool, rainy, overcast, muddy, deep cold lakes). "Bull" is hell bent on getting what he believes are his just rewards for a life of extremely hard work and hardships. It just doesn't work out like Hollywood usually lets it work out (thank goodess!).
