Summary of this DVD...
This is a DVD I got from the library. It looked like a spy story with Tom Hanks. I hadn't heard of it. Mr. HOOves loves spy stories and I love Tom Hanks.

Turns out that it is a wonderful film based on the true story of Francis Gary Powers, a U-2 pilot shot down over the Soviet Union. The story involves a lawyer (James Donovan, played by Hanks) who is tasked with defending a soviet spy at the height of the Cold War. Obtaining a life sentence instead of the death penalty for the RUssian enables the Americans to trade for Powers when he is captured.

The movie was directed and produced by Steven Spielberg. It is a masterpiece, as you might aspect. One among many in his career. Great story, fabulous acting and lots of drama and suspense. This is one of my favorite Tom Hanks performances, too, and that's saying something. It takes place from 1957 - 1962.

Loved it!
