Filmography

Feature films

I’ve gone off the Internet Movie Database, but to keep the length of this manageable and for consistency, have listed only the main name for each movie given there, even if this isn’t necessarily the one by which the film is best known. Hence, Operation Thunderbolt appears below as Mivtsa Yonatan. Alternative names can be found on the individual film’s pages. The search box at the top-right is also your friend. 🙂 Links will be updated, to go to the appropriate review here, as we get them covered.
