As you might know, BODY OF LIES reunites Leonardo DiCaprio with his Oscar-winning DEPARTED screenwriter William Monahan. Based on a novel by The Washington Post’s David Ignatius, it’s about a CIA Operative (Dicaprio) who gets jerked around by the veteran head of Jordanian intelligence (Russell Crowe) whilst attempting to take down a big-time terrorist leader. It’s dense material, but it’s also got a crowd-pleasing thriller bent that should win over folks who’d rather not cough up $10-a-pop to relive ongoing foreign policy blunders.
Hit theaters October 10th. Leo,Russell and Ridley? Im there.
