Synopsis
Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes - Did you know James Bond 007 was inspired by real-life spy events?
Set in 1943, OPERATION MINCEMEAT follows brilliant intelligence officers, Ewen Montagu (Firth), Charles Cholmondeley (Macfadyen), and James Bond 007 creator Ian Fleming (Flynn), who conceived a plan that was dubbed 'Operation Mincemeat'. They would trick the Nazis into thinking that Allied forces were planning to attack southern Europe by way of Greece rather than Sicily. Their plan was to get a corpse, equip it with misleading papers, then drop it off the coast of Spain where Nazi spies would take the bait.
