The American Review
Cinema News &bull Sep 2, 2010Hitting theaters today is George Clooney's newest indie-flick, The American. Directed by Anton Corbijn (Control), The American is an experiment in suspense and character development that flashes with moments of beauty, but will ultimately split audiences.
