Kurt Loder on In Darkness and Safe House

|

In Darkness, Poland's submission for this year's Best Foreign Film Oscar, is a movie that drives home the abomination of the Holocaust in a freshly chilling way, based on true events as recalled by survivors in a 1991 book. Safe House, on the other hand, is a faux Bourne movie, starring Denzel Washington as the ace CIA operative condemned as a rogue and now hunted by the Company throughout colorful foreign locations. Kurt Loder reviews them both.
