The Interpreter

• Directed by Sydney Pollack
• Starring Nicole Kidman, Sean Penn
• A story about an interpreter working in the UN who overhears a death plot against an African leader. This is supposed to be thrilling and suspenseful, but it is rather an overly familiar story to me. I have no difficulty predicting what's going on and will be at the end. Fine performance of Nicole Kidman and Sean Penn, but absolutely not thrilling.
