_Black Bag_

Who do I have more of a crush on, Michael Fassbender or Cate Blanchett? I think it’s a tie.

He’s a spy. She’s a spy. They’re married. There’s a mole in the spy agency. He has to find out who it is. It might be her. The other four suspects are conveniently also paired romantically. What are the HR policies like at spy agencies? Emotional attachments are a huge risk to national security. Relationship discord, an equally huge risk. Fassbender and Blanchett, their relationship: solid. The others, not so much. I’m all for workplace romances, but with far-reaching, world-changing stakes like these, I’m not so sure.

He wears cool glasses throughout. I changed my mind. I think he wins.
