A Customer Review by wdanthemanw
***** 1981. Written and directed by Brian De Palma. A sound engineer tries to unravel a political conspiracy but nobody believes him. This lyrical thriller, which has become a cult movie, proves once again that Brian De Palma is a major director. The film is a smart comment about cinema and manipulation worth multiple viewings. Masterpiece.

I also love all Brian DePalma films.
