## Description

"Taut, extremely entertaining" (Leonard Maltin) and laden with suspense, this fast-moving chiller stars Gabriel Byrne as a Cold War reporter who discovers that free speech comes at a deadly price. Co-starring Greta Scacchi and Denholm Elliott, Defense of the Realm is "electrifying, terrifying" and will leave you "limp from controlled tension" (Los Angeles Times)! When a tawdry sex scandal links a high-ranking British politician to a Russian KGB agent, ambitious newsman Nick Mullen (Byrne) swiftly gets the story on Page One. But when his scoop-of-the-decade begins to unravel the cover-up-of-the-century – involving military secrets, nuclear weapons and government murders – Mullen and the politician's beautiful secretary (Scacchi) finds themselves ensnared in a web of deadly intrigueÂ...where every move could be their last!

    "Trumpet Solitare for Gabriel"
  

*by P***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 12, 2009*

This British political intrique is so fast-paced that you will have to watch in rapt attention so that you don't miss anything, or re-view.  It is as entertaining as a movie can be.  As a writer who has just finished writing a novel, I am always curious as to who could play the leads in my stories.  Gabriel has an uncanny resemblence to my character--could this proud Irishman also emote the body language, timing and speech of my protagonist, an American historical figure? I have viewed as much of Gabe's filmography as I could over the last year and I am convinced he is THE ONE for my fantasy, time-travel,action adventure.  He has quite a range, as I have discovered."Defense of the Realm" is one of my favorites from all his movies I have viewed.  It is taut with innuendo and "what ifs" that occur as a result of his character's journalistic diggings into a political sex scandal.  All of the players are very good as plots unravel before us.Last night (1-11-09) Gabriel Byrne received a well-deserved Golden Globe.  About time for this deserving, but somewhat obscure actor to be recognized.

    True British Intrigue
  

*by N***H on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 5, 2015*

Quite a stunning film. Very surprising quality of the script, the acting, and the feel of the film. Top drawer thriller and if it were made today, it would be full of high tech devices and CG work, which is appropriate in many stories to effectively relay the plot and feel of the film, but in this case, DoR can stand alone as one which needs no high tech wizardry to give you a great experience.In my opinion, this film is a treasure. It is a dark, cold, and eerily filmed story with intrigue and callousness from the bad guys.By all means, if you wish to see how a great, suspenseful British mystery can unfold, you must see this film.Kudos to everyone involved in the production.

    Defence of the Realm
  

*by C***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 9, 2008*

All about whistle blowing and why everyone should for a better world.I like Gabriel Byrne and Greta Scacchi so I'm a little prejudiced. I guess this movie shows me up as a frustrated journalist.I guess I would have done exactly what Gabriel Byrne did and suffer a similar fate.A British movie with no screaming sirens, roaring helicopters and screeching tires. A break from Bruce Willis.Very believable but beware of the ending.
