Hidden Agenda (1990)

American human rights lawyer Brad Dourif and his partner Frances McDormand document atrocities committed during the Troubles in Northern Ireland. When Dourif and his IRA driver are executed by security forces, McDormand joins police investigator Brian Cox in investigating the deaths. I’m admittedly uneducated with regards to the situation in Northern Ireland, both before during, and after the events from this film. The film doesn’t do a lot to educate on the matter which makes the plot a bit confusing for someone like myself, but the acting is reliably strong and makes up for that.
