Wrote about The Conspirator twice, once at Nomad Wide Screen, where I also wrote a second review of Meek's. The second piece is more about Redford as a director in general. Linkage to that piece shortly. In the meantime: check out that pimp stare on McAvoy. "Yeah, that's right, I'm the Egg man--yeah, I'm the Egg Maaaaaan."

I have my reservations about this film, mainly about the characterization of Bruce Greenwood's title character. See my first review of the film at the New York Press.
