Inside ★★★ 1996 (R)
Harrowing antiapartheid drama finds university professor and white Afrikaaner Peter Martin Strydom (Stoltz) being held in a Johannesburg government prison. He's being interrogated by Col. Kruger (Hawthorne), head of the prison security force, supposedly for conspiracy against the South African regime. Tortured, Strydom's will begins to break as the drama flashes forward ten years, with Colonel Kruger now subjected to interrogration by a nameless black questioner (Gossett Jr.) investigating human rights crimes, including Strydom's fate. 94m/C VHS, DVD . Eric Stoltz, Nigel Hawthorne, Louis Gossett Jr.; D: Arthur Penn; W: Bima Stagg; C: Jan Weincke; M: Robert Levin. CABLE
