Summary: Edward Wilson believes in America, and will
sacrifice everything he loves to protect it. But as one of the
covert founders of the CIA, Edward's youthful idealism is slowly eroded
by his growing suspicion of the people around him. Everybody has
secrets...but will Edward's destroy him?
The
Good Shepherd details the birth of the CIA with the timeline cutting in
and out intermittently that it is pretty confusing if the viewer is not
totally focusing on the plot. Beware that you may have to watch
this movie more than once to understand the intricate ties of the events
that lead to the forming of CIA...thus buy the DVD and
enjoy.
