Eye in the Sky opens with a quote on black. “Truth,” the title card waxes, “is the first casualty in war.”
The point is resonant and well taken, but it’s hard to say if the film itself agrees with the adage at all, and, even if we’re to assume it does, whose truth is liable to atrophy in war is extremely ambiguous, if not purposefully obscured.
