The Greengrass Papers

SECRETS AND LIES. CONSPIRACY AND COVER UP. TIPPING POINT AND REVOLUTION. Where the redactions end, a Paul Greengrass film begins.

A graduate of Granada Television's award-winning World in Action investigative reporting team, Greengrass has become one of the most successful and influential film-makers to come out of the British Isles.

Using blistering verite techniques forged on the streets of Beirut and Belfast, his films - including The Bourne Supremacy, The Bourne Ultimatum and Captain Phillips - pack all the punch of news reports, taking more than a billion dollars at the box office and forever changing the way Hollywood makes movies.

Opening up his personal archive to film critic and historian Tom Shone for the first time, the film-maker lays bare the roots of his own obsession with unravelling the 'secret history of the West' and provides an exclusive inside track on a career that turned Hollywood upside down.
