Two Political Thrillers Henri Verneuil[I for Icarus&Mille Milliards Dollars] (DVD)

Two Political Thrillers By Henri Verneuil [I… For Icarus | Mille Milliards De Dollars] From acclaimed director Henri Verneuil (The Sicilian Clan, The Body of My Enemy) come two classic French political thrillers packed with paranoid atmosphere and white-knuckle suspense. I… for Icarus (1979) – Skeptical about an investigation committee’s conclusions surrounding a presidential assassination, a state attorney (Yves Montand, Z, Le Cercle Rouge) reopens the case and unspools a tightly wound conspiracy in this icy-cool and intelligent investigative thriller that will grip you like Oliver Stone’s JFK and features a riveting score by the maestro Ennio Morricone (Le Professionnel). Mille Milliards de Dollars (1982) – A young journalist (Patrick Dewaere, Going Places) stumbles upon something far more sinister than a simple suicide in the death of a politician—he uncovers an assassination plot hatched by an American multinational company intent on taking over several French industries. Boasting a superb cast with Michel Auclair (The Day of the Jackal), Jeanne Moreau (The Bride Wore Black) and Mel Ferrer (Blood and Roses). Trailers | In French with English Subtitles
