mars what could have been a much more interesting film.....The Good Shepherd" unfortunately suffers from a lack of focus....It would probably be more interesting than the movie.....a film should be worthy of a more elaborate release....I would love to see a nice documentary about the creation of the CIA among the supplemental materials..... ...
