Plot:
A young writer is interrogated by a sadistic secret policeman. She is accused of embedding political messages in her children's stories. The entire movie takes place in one room, with only the two act...( read more

Some interesting mind games between Rickman and Stowe with some actual interrogation/torture techniques make this intriguing.
very thought provoking. the acting makes up for the fact that there are only two people present for the entire film. oh, and i'm a total bad boy Alan Rickman fan. LOL on the boom mic appearance.
This is terrifying, but it's also one of the best controversial films I've ever seen. Besides, if you don't want to watch it for the sake of the story, then watch it for the sake of the excellent performances by Madeleine Stowe and Alan Rickman. They're simply impeccable! Superb! :)
Stowe and Rickman. That's it. Two actors face off and have at it. There is no reason why everyone hasn't seen this film... ok, that's not fair, as it was a stumble across for me. The proceeds from this film went to Amnesty International. Cost to make must have been minimal, price worth watching... depends on one's politics, I presume. Great flick, front to back.
I enjoyed every minute of this, even though Rickman is a very bad man. (Maybe that is why I liked this film). It is definitely not for the normal people out there. Very twisted.
Sadistic!Rickman porn brought to you by Amnesty International!
Really brilliant, but by no means a fun or a light film to watch because of some of the scenes (not because of what it shown, but what it left unshown) and the underlying message.
Originally sponsored by Amnesty International, this is an interesting story of a woman who is wrongfully abducted and interrogated by a secret policeman played by Alan Richman. The movie takes place in one room with only 2 actors, and although that may seem like it could be boring, the psychological hold that the womans captor has upon her is brilliantly written and leaves you wondering what you would do in the same predicament. It's a shame that more people haven't seen this movie. Highly recommended!
A reasonably unknown film, but one of my favourites. Two great actors in a room with a dark script. See it.
INTERROGATOR: Your best hope would be to de-personalize what follows and not to look upon me as a foe or yourself as a victim. Remember, we are both seekers of truth, and in this quest, I am your friend, philosopher, and guide.
It's hard to imagine that a film set in one room, with only two actors colud be this good. This is a powerful film, about what some goverments will do to control their people. A children's author (Stowe) is kidnapped from hed bed in the middle of the night. The interviewer is before her, when she wakes up. Unleashing a series of physical, and psychological torture in an attempt to get her confession, is the interviewer (Rickman). This is a great story, look for it.
Tough to watch but as Amnesty International says 50% of the Governments in the world allow torture of their own citizens.
Devastating intersection of the personal and the political. Terror in the home spawns terror in the state, and the repression of memories ensures that history will always repeat itself.
