The Spy Who Came in from the Cold

(dir. Martin Ritt) (1965)

Agent Alec Leamas returns from Berlin, defeated and discouraged, and Control gives him a project: go back and set up his adversary for a big fall.  So far, so good, but nothing is what it seems in grand espionage…

Great, grey, grim, cold war nasty. Dick Burton, et al, play for keeps with nary a hint of glamour.
