Not good enough to be great, too grim to be enjoyable as a spy yarn.
Audience Reviews for The Counterfeit Traitor
Good spy thriller, Lilli Palmer is excellent.

I have seen all of the usual films that one sees of William Holden. This is a gem in the midst of what was considered to be his down period...a very interesting look at a industrialist turned spy and the impacts that this has on his business and personal life. Worth a look.
