Title: Cold war based British espionage drama
Review: Micheal Caine plays Frank Jones a decorated ex-British Navy veteran and now businessman. His beloved son Bob played by Nigel Havers is a Russian linguist working for the British Secret Service before the days of detente. He tells Caine that he suspects some strange things are happening in his agency, that he would like to expose.The Secret Service suspicious of Havers has been bugging his conversations and ultimately liquidate him, covering up his death. Caine, unsatisfied with the official declaration of an accidental death, commences his own investigation.He eventually is lead to John Gielgud playing high ranking politician Sir Adrian Chapple who acting as a Russian mole, has been feeding them sensitive bits of intelligence for years.With a distinctly British flavor, "The Whistle Blower" is an above average vintage Cold War drama that uses at it's conclusion the incredible pagaentry of a monarchy sponsored parade filmed in the streets of London.
