The banality of evil

There are few films that illustrate the hideous nature of Hollywood remakes than than the 1992 American version of this Dutch classic. Ironically, the same director was responsible for both films. Based on the novel The Golden Egg, this charts a boyfriend's almost endless search for his girl who goes disappears at a Dutch service station. The 'banality of evil' has become something of a cliched phrase now but this film reclaims its true meaning like no other.
