Defence of the Realm

Film Description

A young reporter on the staff of a national British newspaper finds himself drifting into a vaguely cynical and bored routine. However, he suddenly stumbles across a political cover-up which sets him on a frightening path of discovery. A tense, political tale of murder, intrigue and corruption, Defence of the Realm showcases award-winning

performances from both Gabriel Byrne (Excalibur) and

Denholm Elliott (Room With a View) as the two hard-nosed

reporters in over their head.
