Caron expands the story to provide a bit of political context, but the appearances of Ward's Reagan and French President Francois Mitterrand (Philippe Magnan) and Willem Dafoe as the head of the CIA needlessly distracts from the bond at the heart of the film. Played by well-known directors Canet and Kusturica, the leads give "Farewell" a humanity that also speaks to the high stakes at hand. They're fantastic.
