 The Nosenko Case on Film February 6, 2010
Mr.
Great Film however in the end it seems to support Angleton's view if this case. Tommy Lee Jones is always good of coarse.
 Not what I expected September 26, 2009
LDS (Corning, CA)
This wasn't what I was expecting. It was interesting, but slow. I was thinking it was going to be a thriller, but it was nothing more than a historical account of Yuri Nosenko's connection or non-connection with the JFK assassination.
 Chilling account February 11, 2009
Richard M. Kuntz (Evanston IL USA)
Largely reflecting the pro-Angelton view of Edward Jay Epstein ("Legend"), who was a consultant on the film, it is as accurate as one can hope to get on the Nosenko mystery. The recent film Good Shepard, which includes some of the same characters in composite, is laughable by comparison as history.
Excellent Companion Piece February 5, 2008

This is an excellent companion piece for the movie The Good Sheperd and also for The Company with Alfred Molina and Michael Keaton. It it dead on about the Angleton mole hunt and the CIA and how it crippled this countries intelligence agencies.
Great stuff!
Interesting, accurate look at a real world spy case May 4, 2007

Tommy Lee Jones plays Steve Daley, a CIA officer tasked in the early 1960s with handling Yuri Nosenko, a supposed KGB defector with important information on Lee Harvey Oswald. "Steve Daley" is a pseudonym for "Pete" Bagley who recently wrote the book "Spy Wars" about the controversial Nosenko case. The movie gives an accurate picture of a very complex affair that was never completely resolved to everyone's satisfaction. This movie is the antithesis of a James Bond film of gun battles and car chases; instead, the battles are those of brains and will. The movie seems to largely reflect the opinions of Bagley/Daley, who ultimately concluded that Nosenko was a false defector intended to mislead the CIA about possible Soviet penetration.
