The Good Shepherd (2006)
In 1961, senior CIA officer Edward Wilson receives a photograph and tape recording after the failed Bay of Pigs Invasion, and obtains a coded signal from “Cardinal.” Then the film flashes back to 1939. Attending Yale University, Edward is invited to join Skull and Bones. In his initiation, he reveals that he discovered but never read the suicide note left by his father, an admiral who was to be named Secretary of the Navy until his loyalties were questioned. FBI agent Sam Murach recruits Edward to expose professor Dr. Fredericks as a Nazi spy, leading to Fredericks’ resignation. Edward dates a deaf student named Laura, but is seduced by Margaret “Clover” Russell in 1940. General Bill Sullivan offers Edward a post in London with the OSS.
Clover’s brother John tells Edward that Clover is pregnant with Edward’s child; Laura, reading their lips, leaves. Edward marries Clover and accepts Sullivan’s offer, leaving his new wife for London where he finds Dr. Fredericks, actually a British intelligence operative who recommended Edward for counter-espionage training. Special Operations Executive officer Arch Cummings tells Edward that Fredericks’ indiscreet liaisons pose a security risk; Fredericks refuses to retire quietly and is killed.
