L'ex primo ministro britannico Adam Lang vive su un'isola negli Stati Uniti con la moglie, la segretaria e le guardie del corpo. Viene raggiunto da un ghost writer incaricato di rivedere da cima a fondo la sua autobiografia. Lo scrittore va a sostituire il precedente ghost writer che è morto cadendo da un traghetto in circostanze misteriose. In breve tempo lo scrittore comprende di essersi accollato un'impresa scottante e non solo sul piano letterario. Lang viene infatti accusato di avere, nel corso del suo mandato, consentito la tortura di prigionieri sospettati di terrorismo e di avere inconfesssati legami con la Cia.

    A fine example of Polanski's filmmaking genius -- excellent performances by McGregor and Brosnan, what an ending!

    Very tense and somewhat confusing movie, but a dramatic ending!

    Book was pretty good. This was as good, if not better. This trimmed down the fat considerably and I enjoyed the ending more than the books. Also great casting.

    The Ghost Writer is an uneventful movie about a man revising a rather tedious manuscript. He spends most of the movie worrying about grammar errors and chapter structures made by his predecessor. This is a good movie for people who think semi colons are high drama. Luckily I am such a person. The third act includes a compelling argument between our hero, the ghost writer, and the villain, his client's wife. The row between this about whether or not its a good idea to use incomplete sentences for dramatic effect. Riveting stuff. I rate this movie a 4 out of 5 stars. Frankly the subplot about the CIA and terrorism was a bit of a bore. The film needed less politics and more prose.

    James Bond writes a memoir with the help of a nosy ghost.

    This is one of the best movies ever made.On a par with Citizen Kane or Lawrence of Arabia or On The Waterfront. Perfect casting, acting, direction, art design, script/story. Polanski's under appreciated masterpiece.

    Not sure why there's so many glowing reviews of this movie. It's a bit of a slog, not a huge sense of stakes and the finale is quite underwhelming.
