1. Costa-Gavras Z!!!!!!!!!

A wonderful and gripping flick!!

Don't miss this one. Deservedly won best foreign language Oscar.

It's about the Greek counter revolution. The cast is universally wonderful.
Brilliant film. I cannot recommend this strongly enough.

Just see it. It is a very important political thriller.

2. I endorse your recommendation!

I found my DVD copy just recently and thought I must watch it again. It's been many years, but I recall how stunning it was.

It's a must-see film.
