Bridge Of Spies the movie

[Pops1967GTX]

An American lawyer is recruited by the CIA during the Cold War to help rescue a pilot detained in the Soviet Union.

I watched this last night for the first time with the wife and was completely knocked out, incredible film.
A great example of what is possible with the medium of Film.

I am so tempted to ask if Robin Trower did the musical score.

Going to see it on "Bargain Night Tuesday". It looks like a good movie, glad to hear that it is.

 

[GetX'd]

Actually it's not a good movie - it's a great movie. Well worth the price of admission. People clapped at the end. The wife and I loved it!

 

[Brandy]

We are also going to see it. Glad to hear our feeling about it is correct. Looking forward to it.

 

[Donny]

It was a fantastic movie, very riviting!

 

[tallhair]

Looking forward to it ... Tom Hanks is usually very good

I even liked the movie he was in about the pirates and thought I wouldn't

How close is it to the Gary Powers story?

The Gary powers character is in the movie very little. The story is more about the attorney who worked out the deal for the trade.

But is it reasonably accurate, or total fantasy?

I was in diapers in 1960 so I wouldn't know. I am sure that it was based on facts, but with some poetic license taken

 

[GetX'd]

Based on a true story - they went through the current lives of the main characters at the end of the show. I think it was a accurate as Hollywood is going to make any movie. It's a Spielberg production.

I though you were much older than that!

That's because I possess the wisdom of someone 30 years greater than my age, but alas, I am but a young whippersnapper.

 

[BeatersRus]

kinda reminds me of Spy Game,with redford and pitt.
another great movie.

No, but I'm sure that years down the road it will happen again.
