Two Faces of January, The

After a shady, unscrupulous American investor (Viggo Mortensen) accidentally kills a private detective (David Warshofsky) in his hotel room in Athens in 1962 in this dark, captivating, gripping, well-acted, 97-minute film based on Patricia Highsmith's novel and reminiscent of Hitchcock's films, he and his beautiful wife (Kirsten Dunst) are aided by a foolish, multilingual, opportunistic, handsome, New Jersey-born tour guide (Oscar Isaac), who helps the couple obtain passports and escorts them to Crete.
