Is his 1988 feature, Betrayed, worth a watch?
I consider this movie as a weak one. Far from Costa-Gavras best. Nevertheless Costa-Gavras always created interesting genre: crime, war, political drama with thriller elements nearly in all his films. Thus all of his films are fun to watch.

Re: SCFZ poll: David Mamet

some time ago i had proposed Bertrand Tavernier as main director and Costa-Gavras as an alternative. Bertrand Tavernier worked that time, but i remember Costa-Gavras was chekced and he had enough audience and voters. Glad his time has come.:)
