I remember seeing this film a couple of years ago and thinking it strange that I'd never heard of it especially bearing in mind the strong cast and also the fact it is much better than many of the films Caine did in the 80's.
I looked it up in my 1996 edition of the Halliwell Film Guide and it wasn't there!!!!
Does anyone know if it's been included in later editions?
I missed it on TV the other day, so I got it on dvd (£2.40 from play.com!) I thought it was great. I also looked it up in my Halliwell (2007) and it's not there.
Many Guide Books and Encyclopedias have cleansed their lists of many less used items. Discontinuing printed books has become widely practiced these past few years. Excessive use of internet information has rendered printed forms obsolete, consider the closing of many long standing daily newspapers. IMDb, Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble as well as many internet web sites provide extensive information. Actually it is more convenient especially when you are already on the internet.
Whistle Blower was controversial at it's time. It has lost it's audience now and is no longer in print. I liked it then and still visit it now and again.
'Whistle Blower was controversial at it's time. It has lost it's audience now..........'WTF? This is soo relevant......always has been, more so since Assange, Snowden, Kelly, NSA etc...........devious criminal UK/US bastard governments.
