Wrong Is Right Reviews
The "BROOKS CODE"
From the standpoint of film making this is a confused movie and is a very disappointing outing for the "great late director Richard Brooks". It's seems almost as if Brooks intentionaly sabotaged his own film. To this day I can not account the editing and disjointedness. I can only dream about what it could have been.
On the other hand I have "loved" this film for years. In many ways it is like a puzzle that you just can't get the last couple of pieces to fit correctly. Segments the film and many of the performances are outstanding as "Black Comedy" each in their own right. Somehow despite the muddle of the film, it still has a powerful impact!
Than there is Prophetic nature of the materail! In the early 1980's "no one" would ever have taken many of the events depicted seriously. Yet 20 years later here we are. Every American needs see this film!
Note:
Wrong Is Right is based on a Charles McCarry's 1979 novel "The Better Angels" about an Arab oil prince, who launches terrorist war againist the west. The real question is why isn't this book in print?
