Two longtime CIA partners are sent from Santiago to Easter Island in the weeks before the 1973 coup. The assignment looks simple. Then one of them befriends a pair of student activists, and the past both men have been carefully not discussing starts surfacing among the stone statues. What gets tested here is loyalty. In theaters November 6 from Searchlight Pictures. Written and directed by Martin McDonagh. Starring John Malkovich, Sam Rockwell, Steve Buscemi, Parker Posey, and Tom Waits. Premieres in competition at Venice.
