The Negotiator
One good man is dispatched into a viper's nest of betrayal in a high stakes espionage thriller penned by Tony Gilroy, Oscar-nominated screenwriter of Michael Clayton and The Bourne Identity. Ten years after he was involved in a devastating terrorist incident, former US diplomat Mason Skiles (Jon Hamm) has found a new calling as a mediator in Boston. He is unexpectedly drawn back into the fold by CIA Agent Donald Gaines (Dean Norris) to oversee the exchange of a kidnapped American operative and a terrorist leader in 1982 Beirut. Unable to refuse the brief, Mason travels to Lebanon, where he meets cultural attache Sandy Crowder (Rosamund Pike), who will help him navigate the corridors of power in a politically volatile territory plagued by violence. As Mason carries out his duties, he exposes complex agendas and a toxic relationship between America, Israel and Palestine.
