Gavras' daughter also made a film worth seeing called "Blame it on Fidel", which has to do with the Allende situation. I just watched "Missing" again the other week... still a good film, and Lemmon was great as the father.

Even though he had residues of Assyrian bigotry toward Muslims, when he was stoned, he was rational and a cool guy to have as a friend and father. The older he got, the more younger and rebelious he became. He loved the youth... He loved new ideas... I hope to grow young just like him.
