Closed Captioned; Standard Screen; Soundtrack English Made-for-cable film, based on the true story of Eli Cohen, Israel's national hero, whose daring mission took him from Argentina to Damascus where he successfully entered the upper echelons of the Syrian government. The secrets he obtained became crucial in Israel's victory in the 1967 Six Day War. This is the true story of an Israeli civilian who was recruited into Israel's Secret Intelligence Agency to become a spy in Damascus, where he spent years infiltrating the Syrian political establishment. Nominted for four Ace Awards.

Impossible Spy Movie Review Average Rating: (5 out of 5 stars)  The New Janson Media DVD Is Excellent With "Extras"
This is an amazing true story about
one of history’s greatest spies. And,
I love this new Janson Media DVD
(Collector’s Edition) of “The Impossible Spy” because it includes many important “extras” such as critic’s reviews, trailer, and an on-location report featuring behind-the-scenes interviews with the stars, John Shea and Eli Wallach
about what it is like to be a spy. Also,
there’s a very good photo gallery, star filmographies, and a time-line of all the major Arab-Israel conflicts that led up to Elie Cohen’s incredible mission, and how vital it was for the outcome of the June 1967 Six-Day War.
The story is exciting and compelling. It’s about an Israeli agent who was sent to Syria, via Argentina, in the 1960’s and was so successful in infiltrating the Syrian High Command, that he was nominated to be their Deputy Defense Minister--and 3rd in line for the Presidency. Unbelievable. And, all true.
Also, this new Janson Media DVD looks great when used with a video projector onto a large screen.

This is almost like a documentary. I expected action but all I got was a documentary with motion picture.

This review is for a different format.  WORST DVD!
The movie itself is GREAT but the DVD is worst! Slingshot refuses to caption/subtitle the DVD. I've called Slingshot and they gave me the runaround and never returned my calls. I will wait until better quality DVD comes out. I guess Slingshot does not want to spend only measly $500 just to subtitle or caption the film to benefit over 12,000,000 hearing impaired people in America.
Other than the media, the film itself is excellent, excellent plot and acting.

Impossible Spy video
 $11.89
This two-CD compilation, assembled from the Walker Brothers' three albums and various singles released by Philips between 1965 and 1967, gives a good overview of their U.K. history without limiting itself to their hits. The sound quality is good if not exceptional -- one gets the sense that another round of remastering would be in order (and while we're talking about sound, wouldn't one like to see a Mobile Fidelity reissue on the Walker Brothers or, for that matter, Scott Walker's best solo stuff?). And the track order isn't chronological -- their two best-known songs, which were not their first two U.K. singles -- occupy the opening two slots on disc one. So this set is lacking in some attributes that one would, ideally, like to se. On the other hand, all of the songs that one would like to see are here somewhere, and the annotation is thorough if not extensive. For anyone starting a collection of the classic Walker Brothers' material, this ...
| | Blues, Blues Christmas Vol. 2 CDs (2005)
Impossible Spy film
$16.39 
Christmas and the blues might seem at first like a strange combination, given that the music of the holiday season is usually joyful, hopeful, and bright, but no other time of the year is so good at showing you what you don't have, and what you can't get, and if you have the blues at Christmas, well, it's going to be a pretty heavy dose. This generous two-disc set from Document Records features 52 tracks of vintage African-American Christmas-themed blues and gospel pieces (with a couple of street sermons thrown in) recorded between 1925 and 1955, ranging from down-and-out laments and jailhouse moans to surprising (and occasionally risqué) requests for what Santa can bring down the ...

Russian master Aleksandr Sokurov (THE SUN, RUSSIAN ARK, MOTHER AND SON) has produced another majestic achievement with ALEXANDRA.

As the story unfolds, Sokurov's deeper purpose is revealed, resulting in a work that speaks profoundly about the corrosive nature of war. Opera star Galina Vishnevskaya is Alexandra. ...
