Rendition (2007 Gavin Hood)

Hood made Tsotsi in 2005, Eye in the Sky in 2015. This - written by Kelley Sane - is a sneaky commentary on torture to extract information, and has a quite confusing structure in which a sub-plot involving Igal Naor (good, a sort of Telly Savalas figure - The Honorable Woman) and his daughter and her boyfriend which runs concurrently actually has happened before the film begins.

Reese Witherspoon, Peter Skarsgaard, Alan Arkin, Jake Gyllenhaal, Meryl Streep, J.K. Simmons.

Nicely shot by Dion Beebe.
