Video: Aviron Pictures’ A Private War Starring Rosamund Pike and Jamie Dornan In Select Theaters Nov 2, Nationwide Nov 16.
Marie Brenner’s 2012 Vanity Fair article “Marie Colvin’s Private War,” A Private War stars Rosamund Pike, Jamie Dornan, Stanley Tucci, and Tom Hollander. 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. Colvin is an utterly fearless and rebellious spirit, driven to the frontlines of conflicts across the globe to give voice to the voiceless, while constantly testing the limits between bravery and bravado. After being hit by a grenade in Sri Lanka, she wears a distinctive eye patch and is still as comfortable sipping martinis with London’s elite as she is confronting dictators. Colvin sacrifices loving relationships, and over time, her personal life starts to unravel as the trauma she’s witnessed takes its toll. Yet, her mission to show the true cost of war leads her — along with renowned war photographer Paul Conroy (Jamie Dornan) — to embark on the most dangerous assignment of their lives in the besieged Syrian city of Homs.
