Bridge of Spies

A lawyer in 1950s New York is hired to represent a Soviet spy in a showcase trial designed to demonstrate the fairness of the US justice system. In the face of public condemnation, he argues against the death penalty, a stance that years later leads to his involvement in an exchange of prisoners in East Germany. Steven Spielberg's fact-based Cold War drama, starring Tom Hanks and an Oscar-winning Mark Rylance

Bridge of Spies airs on BBC One West Midlands at 10:40 PM, Wednesday 3 September. (Subtitles, audio description.)
