Keira Knightley in "Official Secrets" is on Netflix
Watched it today and was fascinated. Didn't remember the story, at the time, of the Iraq War.
Knightley stars as the GCHQ translator who leaked a classified memo to the Observer exposing the US plot to spy on the UN shortly before the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
