Ghost Writer

In this taut political thriller, a British screenwriter (Ewan McGregor) agrees to ghostwrite the memoirs of a retired prime minister, but after he takes the job the former political leader is accused of committing a war crime. As the writer uncovers facts that corroborate these suspicions, he begins to fear he might be killed, just like the man who worked on the memoirs before him. Directed by Roman Polanski. Pierce Brosnan, Tom Wilkinson, Olivia Williams.
