Review: Official Secrets
“Official Secrets” gets overshadowed by the bleakness of actual politics.
”Official Secrets” tells the story of whistleblower Katharine Gun, who in 2003 leaked info about the US Government asking the UK to help them blackmail UN Security Council Members into supporting the Iraq war. Yet because things haven’t gotten much better since it makes it harder to appreciate the sacrifices Gun made. It stars Keira Knightley, Matt Smith, Matthew Goode, Ralph Fiennes, Rhys Ifans, Conleth Hill, and Indira Varma. Gavin Hood directs.
