The acclaimed BBC series gets the Hollywood red carpet remake treatment, with Oscar winning filmmaker Kevin Macdonald directing Oscar winning actors Russell Crowe, Helen Mirren, and Ben Affleck (who got his statue for writing Good Will Hunting remember?) for a faithful retelling of Paul Abbott’s brilliant original. Relocating the political murder-mystery from London to Washington, the tight, tense storytelling and sharp dialogue have survived the trip in a riveting, slick, and compelling movie.
