Rolling Stone
By Jeffrey M. Anderson
Released the same year as Platoon, Salvador is still writer/director Oliver Stone's best film. He was not yet an Oscar-winner and was banging heads with another equally hard-headed personality, writer Richard Boyle, whose story this is. James Woods plays Boyle, a down-and-out journalist in El Salvador during the 1980-81 chaos. On MGM's DVD release, Stone offers a surprisingly lucid and modest commentary track.
