An Officer and a Spy
An Officer and a Spy (original title J'accuse) is a 2019 historical thriller directed by Roman Polanski, based on the acclaimed novel by Robert Harris. Set in 1890s France, the film reopens one of history's most notorious miscarriages of justice: the Dreyfus Affair. When Jewish army captain Alfred Dreyfus (Louis Garrel) is falsely convicted of spying for Germany and banished to Devil's Island, the case appears closed. But newly promoted intelligence chief Georges Picquart (Jean Dujardin) stumbles upon evidence that the real traitor is still free, and that the conviction was built on forgery and prejudice. Driven by conscience rather than friendship, Picquart wages a lonely battle against the French military establishment, confronting corruption, antisemitism, and the threat of his own ruin. Featuring a standout cast that includes Emmanuelle Seigner, Grégory Gadebois, and Mathieu Amalric, with a haunting score by Alexandre Desplat, An Officer and a Spy is a gripping, meticulously crafted period drama about truth, courage, and the price of justice.
