Today we’re talking about a real Cold War gem - Carol Reed’s 1953 film noir thriller “The Man Between”. It’s a great showcase of one of the most tense times and places in the Cold War, Berlin in the early 50’s. It kept me on the edge of my seat and was also loaded with Cold War themes and imagery. The big question- was Ivo Kern, the antihero, a metaphor for Germany looking to atone for the past? Do we trust them? It’s easy for us to answer now, but not so much then. I hope you check it out, I assume most of us haven’t seen it since it was new to me.
