Dobri pastir

Slovenski opis filma:

Film z vrhunsko igralsko zasedbo in v režiji Roberta De Nira govori o nastanku Cie, ene največjih in najbolj razvpitih obveščevalnih agencij na svetu. Edward Wilson je nadarjen mladenič, ki ceni diskretnost, zato je idealen kandidat za skrivno obveščevalno službo. Za državo je pripravljen storiti in žrtvovati vse. Toda z leti postane vedno bolj paranoičen in zaradi hladne vojne ne zaupa nikomur okoli sebe. Tako so na preizkušnjo postavljena njegova prepričanja o predanosti državi, hkrati pa se vedno bolj oddaljuje od žene in sina, ki ne moreta več trpeti vseh njegovih laži.

Originalni opis filma:

Laconic and self-contained, Edward Wilson heads CIA covert operations during the Bay of Pigs. The agency suspects that Castro was tipped, so Wilson looks for the leak. As he investigates, he recalls, in a series of flashbacks, his father's death, student days at Yale (poetry; Skull and Bones), recruitment into the fledgling OSS, truncated affairs, a shotgun marriage, cutting his teeth on spy craft in London, distance from his son, the emergence of the Cold War, and relationships with agency, British, and Soviet counterparts. We watch his idealism give way to something else: disclosing the nature of that something else is at the heart of the film's narration as he closes in on the leak.
