Those who like French Resistance movies, you've got to check out the exciting Charlotte Gray. Starring Cate Blanchett, she plays a spy with a cover blown, who gets a new cover and joins the French Resistance. Fan or not of Miss Blanchett, everyone can agree she's a master at accents. In this movie, with her luscious auburn locks and flawless accent, you really believe she's Scottish! And do any of you recognize the cute French guy? He's actually not French; he's Billy Crudup.
Full of tense scenes with near-misses, explosions, and potential arrests around every corner, this WWII movie is not to be missed if you prefer your action scenes to star civilians instead of soldiers. Normally, this movie isn't my genre of choice, but I recognize it was well-made and very well acted. The setting really drew me in, and the period piece clothing looked authentic - always a bonus.
DLM Warning: If you suffer from vertigo or dizzy spells, like my mom does, this movie might not be your friend. During several scene transitions, the camera swirls in a circle and that will make you sick. In other words, "Don't Look, Mom!"
