Has anyone watched Operation Mincemeat?
It has an excellent cast and script, with a romantic storyline alongside the true WW2 story of trying to deceive the Germans with a body washed up in Spain carrying false papers.

It's really very good.

I didn’t think it was a patch on the 50’s original’The Man Who Never Was’ but enjoyed Colin Firth performance, he’s good in most things.

Just remembered that I was going to buy the dvd ( don’t have Netflix). I think Johnny Flynn is in it.

Yes, it was good, especially the tense bits where it nearly went wrong.
