The Ghost Writer
The film has an understated tension throughout with musical and stylistic nods to Hitchcock. The narrative explores the a "Tony Blair" type prime minister and his role in the Iraq war as well as his relationship to the US government. Elegantly done, but comes across as a little too preachy and paranoid.
