Description:
The tumultuous early history of one of the most covert and powerful government agencies in the world is viewed through the prism of one man’s life in the espionage thriller “The Good Shepherd,” starring Matt Damon and Angelina Jolie, directed by Robert De Niro.

Academy Award winners MATT DAMON, ANGELINA JOLIE and Robert De Niro head this formidable collection of accomplished actors, including Oscar nominee ALEC BALDWIN (The Departed), TAMMY BLANCHARD (Life With Judy Garland: Me and My Shadows), BILLY CRUDUP (Big Fish), KEIR DULLEA (2001: A Space Odyssey), SIR MICHAEL GAMBON (Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix), MARTINA GEDECK (Un Ami Parfait), Academy Award winner WILLIAM HURT (A History of Violence), Oscar winner TIMOTHY HUTTON (Secret Window), LEE PACE (Soldier’s Girl), Academy Award winner JOE PESCI (Goodfellas), EDDIE REDMAYNE (The Golden Age), JOHN SESSIONS (Gangs of New York), OLEG STEFAN (The Officers) and JOHN TURTURRO (O Brother, Where Art Thou?).

Damon plays Edward Wilson, a patriot who understands the value of secrecy — discretion and a commitment to honor have been embedded in him since his tragic and privileged childhood. As an eager, sensitive student at Yale in 1939, he is recruited to join the secret Skull and Bones society, a tightly knit brotherhood that serves to develop future world leaders. Wilson’s acute mind, spotless reputation and sincere belief in American values render him the prime candidate for an intelligence career by those who monitor the newest recruits.

The idealistic young man is recruited to work for the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), the precursor to the CIA, during WWII. It is a decision that will alter the course of his life and change the geopolitical shape of our times as Wilson and his fellow secret group members come to create the most powerful covert agency in the world.

As one of the founders of the CIA, working in the heart of an organization where duplicity is required and nothing is taken at face value, Wilson’s idealism is steadily eroded by his growing suspicious nature, reflective of a world settling into the long paranoia of the Cold War. As his methods are adopted as standard operating procedure, Wilson develops into one of the Agency’s veteran operatives, all the while combatting his KGB counterpart in a global chess match.

But Wilson’s steely dedication to his country comes at an ever-escalating price. Not even the growing concern of his wife, Margaret “Clover” (Jolie), and his beloved son (Redmayne) can divert Wilson from a path that will force him to sacrifice everything in dedication to his job.
