Review of Salvador (1986) by Andy P — 03 Feb 2009
Oliver Stone's other war picture of 1986. Like 'Platoon', it has a documentary-like style where it seems the viewer is being thrust into the battle scenes, giving a cold hard look at what's going on.
It follows a cynical photojournalist (James Woods, in his finest performance) who attempts to capture atrocious-but-valuable images of civil war in El Salvador, realising a long-buried compassion in his soul.
