The Crying Game (1992)

Like the commercials at the time said, don't spoil the surprise of The Crying Game. Seriously, don't spoil yourselves. Go into this blind, not just for the surprise but for this whole, fantastic IRA thriller. One of my favorites. Stephen Rea and Forrest Whitaker are amazing.
