Viewing Notes

For whatever reason I hadn’t seen The Insider yet, though it’s been on my mental ‘to watch’ list for a while now. An excellent movie in every sense of the word. The acting is incredibly good from just about everyone, but especially Pacino, Crowe and Christopher Plummer.

Definitely one of Mann’s best films.
