I'm old enough to remember East Berlin:
Ostbahnhof, Lichtenberg, Ostkreuz… OK, I mostly remember the train stations
east of The Anti-Fascist Defense Wall, but so what? You weren't there at all,
where you now? I admit that I'm not old enough to remember the
Donovan-Abel-Pryor situation, though. Apparently, liberties were taken with the
material, but then, it's (East) Hollywood, folks. I like the Cold War feeling,
but sometimes “Bridge of Spies” is borderline comedy (think “Charlie Wilson's
War”, also featuring one Tom Hanks). Somehow, however, it works. I first wanted
to give the film four stars (cuz reasons), but after some negotiations with a
mysterious private citizen, I give it five!
