As the two men raise their vodka glasses under the watchful eye of Russian memoirist and Philbys last wife, Rufa, Ben Browns compelling political drama asks whether Philby betrayed his friend as well as his country, and how much the writer of The Third Man knew about Philbys secret life.From the writer and director team behind the award-winning West End hit play Three Days in May which inspired the Oscar Winning film Darkest Hour.
