International intelligence just got dumber.

Comedy

Set in the 1960's, a school teacher pretends to be a CIA spy to get his nagging wife off his back. He helps a Russian ballet dancer defect and is then sent to Cuba to locate "Agent X" for the CIA.

VIBE

A delightful romp through Cold War-era espionage with a charmingly inept protagonist. It's a witty, lighthearted affair that feels like a cozy, slightly absurd throwback, perfect for a relaxed evening.
