Alien at the Movies

This movie premise directed by Robert Zemeckis sounds like "Casablanca" meets "Mr & Mrs Smith" meets "Sleeping With The Enemy" meets "Behind Enemy Lines", but is it? Canadian intelligence officer (Brad Pitt) meets French Resistance fighter (Marion Cotillard) in Morocco to assassinate the German ambassador.  They fall in love & wed. Then she is suspected of being a double agent, but is she? This is a tremendous suspense thriller & touching love story. Pitt & Cotillard are marvelous as the loving couple in this gripping WWII spy drama that may have you second guessing how this will end. Is it all's fair in love & war? Do you keep your friends close, but your enemies closer? Does love conquer all? The film is about love & trust in the middle of a war.

Alien gives it 3 "blue dye" stars out of 4.
