5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant!, 7 Aug 2010
This review is from: Betrayed [DVD] [1989] (DVD)
It may be an oldie now, but its still a goodie! Twists and turns, excitement and betrayal. A young Debra and (gorgeous) Tom are brilliantly cast in this unique, brilliant film.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not a dull moment in this movie !, 15 Jan 2002
By Martine Davis - Published on Amazon.com
I am so glad that Leonard Malton's poor review didn't keep me from purchasing this movie. I loved it. It will keep you on the edge of your seat at all times. Although the subject matter is a difficult one, it is something that exists and I thought the movie did a good job of telling the story of a female FBI agent (Debra Winger) who infiltrates a white supremacist group to investigate a murder. It's too bad this movie didn't get better reviews by the critics. I found it to be better than most ! Excellent acting and directing, well worth it !

5.0 out of 5 stars Berenger's own favourite, 9 Mar 2000
By Oddur - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Betrayed [DVD] [1988] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
A truly underrated film concerning white supremacy. Winger plays an FBI agent sent to investigate Berenger's character and find out if he had anything to do with a radio talkshow host getting killed. Costa-Gavras's political opinions shine here but the drama is also powerful. Winger has a real dilemma when she doesn't only fall for Berenger, but also his two children. I recommend this film, has good performances all around. Berenger himself has said that this is his favourite film.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gripping film from start to finish. Excellent characters!, 22 Oct 2002
By skunktrain - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Betrayed [DVD] [1988] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] (DVD)
Another 5 star vote for this film, and well deserved it is.

The artistry in this film is evident, the plot is gripping from beginning to end. I was pleased to see so many familiar faces in the cast: Betsy Blair, (a 1955 Oscar Nominee for "Marty"), "Frasier" dad John Mahoney, John Heard, and character actor Ted Levine ("Silence of the Lambs") all are here, and all do a wonderful job. (John Mahoney is especially excellent, in a chilling but affable way.)

The plot unfolds slowly at first, with only faint hints of what is to come. (Actually, the less you know about this film going in, the more you will be surprised by it.) The "wholesome" farm community which seems so "normal" holds so much more--something troubling and sinister. But yet, these people still retain that "wholesome" normalness to them, even after we see what is underneath. The "normalness" never completely goes away, and in some cases, we still are actually able to sympathize with these characters, as depraved as they are. As a previous reviewer said, the "insanity of normality". "Betrayed" depicts this well.

The whole cast is wonderful--Winger is compelling and convincing, as is the rest of the cast. The characterization (and acting) of Tom Berenger as the "insane/normal" Gary should be applauded particularly. All through the film his character is consistent--a man with a "normal" ability to love those close to him. Even when see how his motivations and world view are so completely warped, we see a Gary who feels deeply, loves, and wants many the "normal" things in life. These qualities do not disappear when the darker side of him is revealed, which makes his character all the more fascinating and even sympathetic at times. The "insanity of normality" is most evident in his character.

Great film score by Bill Conti--understated at times, but effective. All-in-all, a fantastic film. A must-see.
