The Quiet American

Mar 01, 2010

The Quiet American told the story of a love triangle which took place in the end of the French War in Indochina in 1952.A British reporter Micheal Caine, an American aid worker Brendan Fraser and a Vietnamese beauty Do Thi Hai Yen were the lead characters of this movie. It opened after the death of Fraser’s character and so it showed the rest of the movie explaining what led up to his death. Micheal Caine carried the movie, and narrated it also and Brendan Fraser was convincing in his role.It was a slow paced movie but excellent direction coming from Phillip Noyce and brilliant acting from Michael Caine.
