If you loved Five Graves to Cairo, try The Devil's Double

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 / Thriller / War territory. If that's the register that drew you to Five Graves to Cairo, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Devil's Double is

Baghdad, 1987. A pistol shot. Latif Yahia, an Iraqi soldier, is summoned from the front and given an impossible order. He must become the body double of Uday Hussein or face death. A lurid glimpse into a palace of perverse depravity. Tamahori's hyperkinetic crime film might be too pulpy for some.
