When the writer tells emmett the sat-nav proves mcara visited him the night he died, emmett denies meeting mcara and becomes evasive.

Ghost writer, hired to complete the memoirs of a former british prime minister, uncovers secrets that put his own life in harris (screenplay),Roman polanski (screenplay). Rare book dealer, while seeking out the last two copies of a demon text, gets drawn into a conspiracy with supernatural overview, first billed only:Protection officer # unremarkable ghost-writer has landed a lucrative contract to redact the memoirs of adam lang, the former uk prime minister. But before this controversy has started, before even he has closed the deal with the publisher, the ghost-writer gets unmistakable signs that the turgid draft he is tasked to put into shape inexplicably constitutes highly sensitive material.

The credits simply list him as the ghost (the character is never named in the original novel). The ghost visits the rhinehart offices at the beginning to interview for the position, he goes through security and is given a visitor badge, which he is seen wearing in the meeting, but his agent rick and the lawyer are clearly not wearing one, even though they are visitors as well. Now in the ghost writer, the acclaimed director recaptures that hitchcock sense of inevitable evil slowly stalking the rich and famous while the little guy protagonist witnesses the underbelly of -prime minister andrew lang (pierce brosnan) hires a ghost writer (ewan mcgregor) to finish an autobiography by the previous ghost writer, who mysteriously drowned. As unnamed ghost begins his work in a martha's vineyard hideaway of lang, mayhem breaks out, for lang is accused of sanctioning water boarding in the iraq it is apparent lang's personal life is deteriorating as well, the ghost pursues with the tenacity of jake gittes the mystery of how his predecessor died, gaining a few bruised bones but not a broken nose for being the film has some clichéd situations, almost as if polanski is trying to evoke '70's thrillers in all their cheesiness, he has recruited an excellent cast. Polanski has always directed his actors well, but of course he is smart enough to hire them in the first stark; outdoor settings; the almost antiseptic interiors; the slowly suspenseful music; the car chases; the shower; and the suspicious ladies,especially the blond), are a few of the hitchcock touches gracing the ghost writer.

According to some, the ghost is also the director's best film for a number of e its gentle – some might say ponderous – pace, this politically charged tale of a blair-like former prime minister and the man brought in to help write his memoirs proves the film-maker's ability to create gripping cinema without succumbing to the action-movie tropes that have infiltrated the thriller genre in recent years. Polanski delivers an air of intrigue as chilling as the wintry martha's vineyard estate where much of it is set, and the classy cast, including ewan mcgregor as the ghost writer, pierce prosnan as former pm adam lang, olivia williams as his cherie blairesque wife and sex and the city's kim cattrall as his loyal aide and mistress, performs the ghost, which won the silver bear for best film at berlin, lang is under virtual siege from the press for taking the uk to war in iraq.

Me, the ghost's lightweight nature and far-fetched plot twists are outweighed by a breezily entertaining tone, precise direction and a sumptuously professional cast. Mcgregor, despite uncharacteristic flaws in his attempted estuary accent, is excellent as a will-o'-the-wisp of a character, whose discoveries seem driven more by the hand of fate than by any personal drive or you catch the ghost, which was titled the ghost writer in the us, at the weekend?
