If you loved Official Secrets, try The Impossible
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 / History / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Official Secrets, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What The Impossible is
Thailand, winter. A child's inflatable ball. Palm trees sway, as a vacationing family settles into postcard serenity, pre-Christmas. Then, an unfathomable roar and churning black tide swallow the coast. Stranded, injured, they search for each other amid the devastation. Bayona orchestrates disaster with Spielbergian scale.
