(Times of Israel) Jordan Hoffman - This year's Sundance Film Festival saw the premiere of an adaptation of Nicholas Dawidoff's 1994 biography, The Catcher Was a Spy: The Mysterious Life of Moe Berg. As the U.S. raced to create the first atomic bomb, there was great worry that the Nazis would beat them to it. So they sent a Jewish former professional ball player to ascertain just what was going on with the German bomb, and then, if the situation was truly dire, assassinate its lead scientist. When we first meet Moe Berg in 1938, he's a catcher with the Boston Red Sox. The Princeton graduate, who later attended Columbia Law School and the Sorbonne, speaks a slew of languages, reads foreign newspapers, appears on radio quiz shows (and blows everyone away). 2018-02-08 00:00:00Full Article
