The Quiet American (1957)
Country: US
Technical: bw 122m
Director: Joseph L. Mankiewicz
Cast: Michael Redgrave, Audie Murphy, Claude Dauphin
Synopsis:
A politically innocent American befriends a cynical British reporter in Vietnam, and challenges the latter's seigneurial behaviour towards a native girl.
Review:
Partially bowdlerized treatment of Greene's masterly novel set at the time of the French Indochina war. Redgrave's performance more than makes up, however.
