BRIDGE OF SPIES

Recommended. An excellent thriller: based on facts, superbly scripted and acted, with lots of tension from the beginning to the end, with a pinch of humour (e.g. after the counsel got mugged and had his coat stolen the other side's spy says: "What would you expect when it was 5th Avenue's Burberry?"), courtroom drama and moral dilemmas. Also an excellent scene repetition where jumping over a fence means something different in cold war Berlin and in the US.
