Don't miss this movie. Good story and excellent acting and direction. One of the best movies of the year.
From the Promotional Material:
Tom Hanks stars as the American attorney tasked with negotiating the release of a U-2 spy plane pilot who was shot down over Russia at the height of the Cold War in this historical drama from DreamWorks Studios. Steven Spielberg and Mark E. Platt produce a film written by Matt Charman.
Comments by other reviewers:
• Authentic re-creations of the period, including duck-and-cover clips about a nuclear holocaust that frightened young students, serve as a reminder of a time, not unlike our own, when the threat of terror kept a steady and disturbing beat.
• Bridge Of Spies holds the audience's hand a little too much but it's still a gripping true story with relevance today.
• But even with the Hollywood license to embellish, and the clever Coen brothers involved, Bridge of Spies is more of an argument for upholding American values and the Constitution than it is a spy thriller.
