Bridge of Spies
Oscar-nominated Cold War thriller.
Fri 11 – Wed 16 March, 2016

Nominated for six Oscars including Best Picture and Best Screenplay, the fourth collaboration between Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks is a subtle Cold War thriller that owes a strong debt to classics of the genre. Hanks plays James Donovan, a lawyer from New York who must defend a captured Soviet spy (an excellent Mark Rylance). When an American pilot is shot down over Russia, it’s up to Donovan to make the trade, spy for pilot. Spielberg and Hanks ably balance a raw sense of sentimentality and justice mixed with the cold edge of John le Carré-style paranoia..
