The Debt (2010)
Drama, Thriller
The Debt is a remake of the 2007 Israeli thriller film Ha-Hov, directed by John Madden from a screenplay by Matthew Vaughn, Jane Goldman and Peter Straughan. It stars Helen Mirren, Sam Worthington, Jessica Chastain, Ciarán Hinds, Tom Wilkinson, Marton Csokas and Jesper Christensen.
The espionage thriller begins in 1997, as shocking news reaches retired Mossad secret agents Rachel and Stefanabout their former colleague David. All three have been venerated for decades by their country because of the mission that they undertook back in 1966, when the trio (portrayed, respectively, by Jessica Chastain, Marton Csokas and Sam Worthington tracked down Nazi war criminal Vogel in East Berlin. At great risk, and at considerable personal cost, the team’s mission was accomplished — or was it? The suspense builds in and across two different time periods, with startling action and surprising revelations.
