A wonderful and gripping flick!!
Don't miss this one. Deservedly won best foreign language Oscar.
It's about the Greek counter revolution. The cast is universally wonderful.
Brilliant film. I cannot recommend this strongly enough.
Just see it. It is a very important political thriller.

I found my DVD copy just recently and thought I must watch it again. It's been many years, but I recall how stunning it was.
It's a must-see film.
