A World Apart (1988)
Country: GB
Technical: col 110m
Director: Chris Menges
Cast: Jodhi May, Jeroen Krabbé, Barbara Hershey
Synopsis:
A South African journalist is committed to the campaign against Apartheid, but when she is arrested for implications of ANC collaboration, her neglect of her family becomes apparent, particularly for her eldest daughter.
Review:
Good acting from all involved, especially David Suchet as a benevolent inquisitor; not as cinematic as Cry Freedom, cinematographer Menges's directorial debut is equally less committed to existing as an 'entertainment'.
