"Black Book" -movie of the year- and it's only May


The director of "Showgirls" has made the most exciting, dramatic movie of the year. Yes, Paul Verhoeven has gone back to Europe and respectability with "Black Book", a terrific WWII movie about a Jewish woman who becomes a spy for the Dutch underground and faces all kinds of hardship and adventure. This is the kind of movie that keeps you guessing what is going to happen next. It is a thriller for adults. The movie is three hours long, but one doesn't feel it. This is great filmmaking and storytelling.
Don't miss it.
