Our take

Rosamund Pike (Gone Girl) plays the late Marie Colvin, a feisty yet troubled war correspondent, in this biopic that travels to the frontlines of world conflicts. A life led by an uncompromising conviction in journalism’s role to tell the truth, A Private War pays homage to a fascinating figure.
