À cause d'un assassinat

This movie sets the tone quite effectively, and was able to hold my attention almost until the end...almost. The paranoia is tangible and made enjoyable thanks to the sure acting of Beatty. Everything is embellished by some outstanding cinematography, with some memorable moments, such as the test screening sequence and some breathtaking architecture in certain locations.

However, most of the plot is not plausible, it is not clear how the main characters gets his intel, how or when the "foe" he's fighting gets a step ahead. And from the indoor parade I got a bit lost because my attention dropped. It is still a movie I'd recommend and probably rewatch to get a better grasp of it.
