"Z" is one the best political thriller film i have ever watched...the film is all about assasination of prominent left-wing politician, known only as "Z" who is murdered in a politically charged climate. "Z" is greek film and it was based true real life assassination of Greek politician Grigoris Lambrakis in 1963. The film's core is not only assasination but it is all about the fight for injustice, it shows how powerful peoples manipulate common citizens, it shows values human rights, it shows truth and how corruption could destroy social justice and how hard it would be to survive in that nature for normal citizens, The film is still relevant and so power.
The "Z" symbol is symbol of life and justice, In the greek language letter "Z" means "He is alive". The film is mirror of real social structure of society. It was realesed in 1969 when the country "greece" was under the control of army, that time govermental censorship and political tensions was so high but still Costa-Gavras managed to realease film in that chatoic time period. one the best political film.
The fact is All president's man (1976) was directly or indirectly influenced by Z.
