Our take

Roman Polanski directs Ewan McGregor and Pierce Brosnan in this London-set conspiracy thriller. Digging into the intimate, behind-closed-doors world of modern politics, The Ghost Writer offers an elegant web of storytelling intrigue. And the score is by Academy-Award winner Alexandre Desplat!
