Highlights of Today’s AFI/LA Film Festival

Following are capsule reviews of today’s screenings in the American Film Institute Los Angeles International Film Festival at the Cineplex Odeon Century Plaza Cinemas:

‘Resurrected’

Great Britain, 1988, 96 minutes 6:45 p.m. The only thing more hellish than war is its uncivilized aftermath in this grim first film from director Paul Greengrass (co-author of the controversial book “Spycatcher”), which begins seven weeks after the end of the brief Falklands War. A missing and presumably dead British soldier miraculously straggles in from the hills, and although this shy young man is at first given a hero’s welcome back home, he is eventually presumed to be a cowardly deserter and is ostracized by everyone he knows. Well-told, but unremittingly bleak.
