Little Grey Man

Director Errol Morris / 2000 / USA

The best spy is invisible. Antonio Mendez didn't achieve invisibility (and a formidable reputation as a super spook) using James Bond technology, but by being a master of disguise Mendez was point man on countless perilous missions to Moscow, Hong Kong, Laos and Iran at the height of the Cold War. He survived by being able to blend into any environment in hours. Morris dredged up recollections of some of Mendez' more hair raising exploits. Fascinating.
