Default Re: Munich

HBO did the first adaptation of the book Spielberg's adapts for "Munich" in a film called "Sword of Gideon" - back in the late 80s I believe. It obviously wasn't a blockbuster type film as back then an HBO film wasn't quite on par with studio releases. But it was certainly a good film with intensity and action. I can only imagine how it will be with Spielberg. I don't think it's going to be too depressing. My understanding is the focus is on the Mosad agents seeking out and neutralizing the PLO terrorists.
