If you loved An Ordinary Man, try The Ottoman Lieutenant

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Theysit in Drama / War territory. If that's the register that drew you to An Ordinary Man, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Ottoman Lieutenant is

Lillie quits the States for a Ottoman field hospital only to swap bandages for flirtation when a cavalry officer rides into her life. Her new paramour is nice but the war brewing outside remains distinctly less romantic. A steamy distraction in a warzone is just what the recruitment posters never warned you about.
