Academy AwardŽ winner Nicole Kidman stars for OscarŽ winner Sydney Pollack--director of such genre-defining thrillers as The Firm, Absence of Malice and Three Days of the Condor--in The Interpreter, a suspenseful thriller of international intrigue set inside the political corridors of the United Nations.

Kidman stars as South African U.N. interpreter Silvia Broome, who inadvertently overhears a hushed, after-hours conversation in the General Assembly Hall. And what she hears could topple a government...if she can just survive long enough to get someone to believe her.

In the right hallway, at the right time, all it takes is a whisper to tip the balance of power.

From Universal Pictures, Working Title Films and Misher Films, The Interpreter is directed by Sydney Pollack, produced by Working Title's Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner, and Kevin Misher (The Rundown), and written by Charles Randolph (The Life of David Gale) and Scott Frank (Minority Report).
