In a world where journalism is under attack, Marie Colvin (Academy Award® nominee Rosamund Pike) is one of the most celebrated war correspondents of our time. Her mission is to show the true cost of war, driving her, along with renowned war photographer Paul Conroy (Jamie Dornan), to embark on the most dangerous assignments of their lives as they journey to the frontline of conflicts across the globe.

This movie shows in a realistic light the true cost of war, the true heroes, and in the end...the true cowards who incite this unnecessary imbalance for their own hollow egos. Marie Colvin brought this ugliness to a readership that would have otherwise gone living in denial and, she did so at the cost of her own life. Sadly, much of the "civilized" world has gone on to pretend that these atrocities do not happen or have been embellished for theaterical reasons. These naysayers have that luxury.

idiotic, and lies right from the explanation in the top, "in a world where theres a war against Journalism." nope, Journalism is dead. for decades it's been nothing but disinformation, bias, and political wings, controlled completely by the Democrat cult.

This lady was crazy brave! If it wasn't for her and her photographer, nobody would see just how bad and sad wars can be. I thought the show kept my interest most of the time, so I liked it.
