If you loved Code 46, try A Mighty Heart
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
Both films are directed by Michael Winterbottom, and they sit in Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Code 46, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What A Mighty Heart is
Karachi dawn, 2002. A cello case rattles over broken asphalt. Mariane Pearl’s camera sits on the breakfast table, empty. Outside, a city unspools toward noise and shadow. A single man walks into a kidnapping he never meant to film. Winterbottom’s vérité shudder brings the newsroom to your lap.
