Great plot twists without giving away too much along the way

We had the opportunity to see the film and engage in a Q&A with writer/director Billy Ray.

The movie was so tightly written and portrayed events in such a way that in a very short amount of time you understood so much more than was covered by all of the books and newspaper accounts of the incident involving Robert Hanssen.

The acting was fantastic with Chris Cooper way out in front giving another amazing performance.

The Q&A with Billy Ray revealed a man who is so skilled at his craft and so methodical and strategic yet at the same time plagued by unnecessary insecurity.

This is a must see!
