How and why someone would turn informer, how others would relate to him and vice versa -- the way this movie presents these and other issues is superbly well done and the acting is absolutely convincing.

Cary Elwes plays a sympathetic British soldier (there are a few) whose kindly feelings get him into trouble, and Timothy Dalton plays an over-the-top version of the British oppressor tyring to utilize an informant without destroying him before he can be of use.

Other than Timothy Dalton's usual overacting, the performances all around are quite good - a very worthwhile movie with excellent music by The Pogues and Shane McGowan. Rating: - The Informant This is slightly better than 'Framed' and in my opinion one of Tim's better choices! Very well written and directed and for that matter acted by all those on screen! Tim Dalton gives an excellent performance, his best since Licence to Kill in my mind! I won't give the plot away but I will say you would be foolish not to buy this! A gritty if somewhat harrowing tale of life in Northern Ireland.
