Fitzgerald = the special prosecutor in the film "Z?"

[villager]

trying this thesis out in the politics forum, as well...

Having recently re-watched the great, late 60's film "Z," based on the true assassination of an RFK-like House of Deputies figure in Greece (the rightwing still uses the same playbook: "accidents," "lone nuts," etc.), I'm wondering if Fitzgerald will turn out to be like the Jean-Louis Trintignant character in that film.

Which is to say, a prosecutor hired on to do his expected job -- abet the cover-up -- but who actually sticks to the law, and finally, though he doesn't want to, goes after the generals -- because the evidence shows they're the guilty ones. (Of course, the generals struck back, after their arrest, and Greece was a dictatorship for many years...)

If you don't know the film, here's a blurb:

And yes, it's available on Netflix...
