Anne Coates' invisible editing received Oscar and BAFTA nominations - certain scenes such as finale are truly wonderful to watch; she's also doing something interesting cutting between zoom ins. I thought the music was only OK before I knew it was Morricone, but no problem at all with John Bailey's very professional lighting.
Clint Eastwood is the elderly secret service agent trying to protect president from serial killer John Malkovich, having unlikely affair with Rene Russo (well, no more unlikely than Cooper and Hepburn I suppose). Script (Jeff Maguire) is good - he hardly wrote anything. How do you write a good screenplay then hardly write anything? By writing very slowly...
I knew that glass roof was going to be significant. Petersen was a bit obvious there maybe.
