Espionage Films

Espionage Fictional work depicting spies and secret agents seeking to uncover or maintain secrets from each other and for one country or for the benefit of another. Living a masquerade, spies are usually cynical, amoral, deceitful, alienated, and ready to betray another person or cause, although these are often seen as merely the means to achieve a patriotic goal. Although the secrets often have a military application, the setting can be either during wartime or in the Cold War.

Feature examples: Notorious (1946), The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956), North by Northwest (1958), and the endless series of James Bond films.
