The Quiet American

Acclaimed Vietnam War drama, based on the novella by Graham Greene, about a jaded English journalist who finds himself embroiled in the politics of war through a troubled love triangle. Leading a relatively undisturbed existence with his beautiful mistress, his complacency is disturbed by the arrival of a young American aid worker, whose interventionist political zeal jars with the older man - a problem made worse by the interest he poses in the mistress.
