A Call to Spy (2019)
6/10
Read "A Woman of No Importance" Instead
12 March 2023
This movie is ok, but I could see how it leaves the viewer wanting. It doesn't go into any real depth on any level. Virginia Hall, an American from Baltimore, was one of the most effective spies working for the British during WWII. The book is chock full of amazing things she did for the French and the war effort as a whole, all the while having to over-prove herself among less qualified men ranked above her. An amazing story about an amazing woman who outwitted the Nazis.

Another movie is supposed to be in the works with the same title as the book, but that seems to have been shelved because of the pandemic (or other reasons). I hope that film gets back on track and more closely follows the book.
