The Quiet American

Starring: Michael Caine, Brendan Fraser, Rade Serbedzija, Do Hai Yen, Do Thi Hai Yen
Directed by: Phillip Noyce
Distributor: Miramax

Starring the fabulous character actor Michael Caine and the sexy Brendan Fraser, this is a must see movie.

Based on a classic novel by Graham Green, this murder mystery is set in Vietnam, 1952, when the French Indochina war was going on, before America publicly became involved.

A love triangle ensues between the English journalist, Caine, the young American, Fraser, and a beautiful Vietnamese woman who is caught between them.

Nothing is what it seems and betrayal is everywhere.

Great, must see movie.
