Costa-Gavras’ powerhouse film Z (1969) is an anti-fascist political thriller that is both high-conscience melodrama and high-tempo action movie. It was the first film nominated for Oscars as both Best Picture and Best Foreign Language Film, winning the latter. Z presents a thinly fictionalized account of the assassination of democratic Greek politician Grigoris Lambrakis in 1963. The film captures Costa-Gavras’ outrage about Greece’s ruling junta. Film critic Roger Ebert named Z the best film of 1969, writing, “It will make you weep and will make you angry. It will tear your guts out… Z is at the same time a political cry of rage and a brilliant suspense thriller."
