Reilly, ace of spies [videorecording] / Euston Films ; Fremantle Media ; Thames ; produced by Chris Burt ; writers, Troy Kennedy-Martin ; directed by Martin Campbell, Jim Goddard.
At the turn of the 20th century, one remarkable man single-handedly tried to alter the course of history. Sidney Reilly was a Russian-born British agent who radically transformed modern espionage techniques and set the mold for the super spy. From one heart-pulsing mission after another, from stealing top-secret Russian oil information to a near overthrow of the Bolshevik Revolution to his final capture by Stalin's forces in 1918, Reilly's exploits are at times so daring, it's hard to believe they are actural history.
