A Private War

(2018)Directed by Matthew Heineman106 min · RDrama, War
“The most powerful weapon is the truth.”

Marie Colvin (Rosamund Pike) wants to be where the shooting is, so she can tell the people who never see it what it looks like. She files from the frontlines of war after war, with Paul Conroy (Jamie Dornan) beside her and Sean Ryan (Tom Hollander) waiting on her copy. Matthew Heineman, who came to this from documentaries, follows the work as it keeps costing her more of her life.
