A dramatic thriller set against the backdrop of a series of historic events, “Bridge of Spies” tells the story of James Donovan (Tom Hanks), a Brooklyn lawyer who finds himself thrust into the center of the Cold War (aff) when the CIA sends him on a near impossible mission to negotiate the release of a captured American U-2 (aff) pilot. High stakes and suspense power a story inspired by true events that capture the essence of a man who risked everything and vividly brings his personal journey to life.
Bill and I really enjoyed this movie. That fact that it was a true story just kept me on the edge of my seat even more! I am fan of Tom Hanks and this movie definitely does not disappoint. I highly recommend Bridge of Spies for you next movie night at home (aff)!
