As the 2024 election draws near, we can't get enough political thrillers, this week looking at Steven Spielberg's Cold War tale, BRIDGE OF SPIES starring Tom Hanks and Mark Rylance. Scripted by Matt Charman, Joel Coen and Ethan Coen, the film tells the true story of James B. Donovan (Hanks), a New York City lawyer called upon to defend a recently arrested spy for the Soviets, Rudolph Abel (Rylance). Donovan develops a surprising respect for his stoic client, eventually fueling his motivation to attempt an historic prisoner exchange in East Germany just as the Berlin Wall is going up. A rare espionage suspense story that's focused more on diplomacy than violence, BRIDGE OF SPIES has garnered a dubious reputation as the quintessential Speilberg/Hanks "Dad movie", but it's time for MAMA to cross this BRIDGE, stopping for a few diversions into Christopher Nolan, The Man Who Knew Too Much, nepo babies, Munich, Henry Fonda, The Great Gatsby, The Negotiator, The White Ribbon, nuclear war and much, much more!

This episode explores Bridge of Spies (2015), the Cold War legal and political thriller directed by Steven Spielberg (and written by Matt Charman, Ethan Coen, and Joel Coen). The film is based on the true story of American attorney James Donovan, who is assigned to represent Soviet spy Rudolf Abel after Abel is arrested in New York and prosecuted for espionage. The story takes a turn when American pilot Francis Gary Powers is captured by the Russians after his plane is shot down over the Soviet Union while conducting a surveillance mission. Donovan is then tasked with negotiating a high-stakes prisoner exchange—Abel for Powers—that culminates in a climactic scene on the Glienicke Bridge connecting Potsdam with Soviet-controlled East Berlin. The film is not only highly entertaining; it also provides a window into important legal issues around national security, criminal, and immigration law that still resonate today. Joining me to talk about Bridge of Spies are Lenni Benson, Distinguished Chair in Immigration and Human Rights Law at New York Law School, one of the nation's foremost authorities immigration law and a prominent advocate in the field, and Jeffrey Kahn, University Distinguished Professor at SMU Dedman School of Law, a leading scholar on constitutional and counterterrorism law, an expert on Russian law, and the author of a must-read article on the Abel case, published in the Journal of National Security Law and Policy.

Burt recounts the surreal experience of learning about Fisher's true identity from a newspaper headline, the subsequent FBI interrogations, and the emotional courtroom testimony where he struggled to reconcile his friendship with the stark reality of espionage. Burt's journey leads him to Moscow in a failed attempt to reconnect with Fisher, revealing a labyrinthine world of secrets and paranoia. He shares a heartfelt letter he left for Fisher, expressing regret and longing for a simpler time when art, not intrigue, was their common ground. As a testament to the personal connection they shared, Burt unveils a handcrafted wooden box—a wedding gift made by Fisher himself—symbolizing the genuine human connection that endured despite the shadowy world they navigated. This episode is a poignant exploration of identity, memory, and the complex human relationships that defy the black-and-white narrative of the Cold War.

In a riveting episode that peels back the layers of Cold War espionage, we sit down with Burt, an artist who unwittingly befriended a man better known as Colonel Abel, the infamous Bridge of Spies Spy who was exchanged for shot down US U2 pilot Gary Powers. Burt knew Abel as Emil Goldfuss but his real name was Willie Fisher from Newcastle Upon Tyne in England. Fisher was a Soviet agent deeply embedded in the fabric of New York City's bustling art scene. Burt's tale unfolds in a studio building exclusively for artists, where he first crossed paths with Fisher in an old-fashioned elevator—an encounter that would mark the beginning of an unexpected friendship. Burt reminisces about their shared moments, from the peculiar request for a cup of turpentine to late-night discussions surrounded by the haze of cigarette smoke. He reflects on the nuances of their bond, the fatherly figure he saw in Fisher, and the mutual need for companionship that transcended the spy's professional obligations.

Auch im vorletzten Kapitel ihrer Reise durch die Filmographie des einflussreichsten Hollywood-Regisseurs der letzten 50 Jahre suchen Dennis und Patrick nach der besonderen Spielberg-Magie. Dafür müssen sie diesmal schon etwas genauer hinsehen, denn das Historiendrama Lincoln (2012) versteckt seine Reize unter einer eher spröden Oberfläche. Manchmal reicht aber der sprichwörtliche zweite Blick, um mittelgroße Begeisterung für einen bislang mäßig geschätzten Film zu entwickeln, wie Dennis angesichts Bridge of Spies - Der Unterhändler (2015) feststellen muss. Und selbst der wenig geliebte BFG - Big Friendly Giant (The BFG, 2016) efährt ein wenig Verständnis seitens Patrick. Und sei es auch nur aufgrund der Erkenntnis, dass an einer Verfilmung des Roald-Dahl-Kinderbuchs Sophiechen und der Riese wohl fast jeder gescheitert wäre.

Rudolf Ivanovich Abel was one of the most integral agents of the KBG, the Soviet Union's most renowned spy network during the Cold War of the 1950s. He may have infiltrated Los Alamos labs and fed critical intelligence back to Moscow through the use of cloak-and-dagger techniques like sneaking microfilm in hollowed- out coins and dropping bundles of cash at lamppost hideaways. He kept it up until his cover was blown by an incompetent colleague who wanted to defect to the United States. This lead resulted in a frenzied search by the FBI to discover the identity and whereabouts of the spymaster. The month long stake out of his hotel in Manhattan leading to his eventual arrest and transfer to a Texas deportation facility where he was put under extensive interrogation. His three-month trial and guilty verdict for violating U.S. espionage laws resulted in 30 years in prison rather than the electric chair. The exchange for his freedom several years later involved the American Spy Francis Gary Powers. To discuss this story is today's guest Cecil Kuhne, a prominent litigator, who has long been interested in the world of Cold War. He is the author of KGB Man: The Cold War's Most Notorious Soviet Agent and the First to be Exchanged at the Bridge of Spies.

On 10 February 1962, Gary Powers, the American pilot whose U2 spy plane was shot down in Soviet airspace, was released on “The Bridge in Spies” in Berlin by his captors in exchange for one Colonel Rudolf Abel, aka Vilyam Fisher - one of the most extraordinary characters in the history of the Cold War. Born plain William Fisher in Newcastle upon Tyne, in the UK this British grammar schoolboy was the child of revolutionary parents who had fled tsarist oppression in Russia. Their son returned to his spiritual homeland, the newly formed Soviet Union, and became a spy, embarking on a mission to New York, where he ran the network that stole America's atomic secrets. In 1957, Willie's luck ran out and he was arrested and sentenced to thirty years in prison. Five years later, the USSR's regard for his talents was proven when they insisted on swapping him for Gary Powers. I speak with Vin Arthey, the author of “Abel. The true story of the spy they traded for Gary Powers” Vin Arthey has traced Willie's tale from the most unlikely of beginnings in Newcastle, to Moscow, the streets of New York, and back again, a story of Cold War espionage to rival anything in fiction.Episodes mentionedThe Rosenberg's https://coldwarconversations.com/episode184/Portland Spy Ring https://coldwarconversations.com/episode138/ https://coldwarconversations.com/episode139/The battle to preserve Cold War history is ongoing and your support can provide me with the ammunition to continue to keep this podcast on the air.

Lost & Found- Bridge of Spies - episode 77Steven Spielberg is possibly one of the most popular filmmakers in the world. He has helmed critically acclaimed films across genres and formats for more than 60 years. However, there are few films that have slipped through the cracks in terms of mainstream popularity, and one such film is the 2015 Cold War drama film,  Bridge of Spies. This carefully crafted film tells the story of a Soviet spy standing trial in the US in 1960 during the Cold War. Revered English actor and playwright Mark Rylance essays the role of the stoic and unassuming KGB spy, Rudolf Abel. Rylance's character is a far cry from the swashbuckling and flamboyant fictional spies such as James Bond, Jack Reacher, Jason Bourne, or Ethan Hunt. In fact, Rudolf Abel could be mistaken for a polite middle-aged man leading a private life in the US. However, when his cover is blown, he stands trial at the US Supreme Court for espionage. A lawyer named James Donovan, essayed by Hollywood legend Tom Hanks, is tasked with the responsibility of negotiating a deal with the Soviets to exchange Abel for an American pilot, whose plane was shot down inside the Soviet Union. The film is based on true events and was praised for its authentic depiction of the nuances surrounding foreign diplomacy, geopolitics, and espionage. The film's sublime editing and engrossing screenplay aided by the brilliance of Mark Rylance and Tom Hanks make it a compelling watch. You can watch this film on Sony Liv, or you could also subscribe to OTTplay Premium to get Sony Liv along with other regional and international OTT platforms for the price  of one. Well that's the OTTplay Lost and Found for today , until the next episode it's your host Nikhil signing out.Aaj kya dekhoge OTTplay se poochoWritten by Ryan Gomez

In today's emotionally-honest conversation, we discuss how Billy's early work on a soap opera impacted his process as an actor; what he learned from being directed by Steven Spielberg on the set of BRIDGE OF SPIES; and how, despite his recent success as one of the villains in NO TIME TO DIE, it still took Billy over half-a-decade to experience a career-defining moment that shaped his entire outlook on the business.
