The true story of an fbi agent who goes too far. Jack huston is mark putnam, new to the field. When he convinces the wife (emilia clarke) of a known bank robber to be an informant, things go smoothly. At first. Then agent putnam breaks the rules. Just the dumb common sense rules at first. It all goes haywire when he breaks bigger and bigger rules. The informant starts bragging about being an informant. And she won't leave him alone. Pretty serious roles for johnny knoxville and karl glusman. It's done very well! A lot of it is filmed in a very dark atmostphere, to give the feel of the serious mood. There's an entry in wikipedia describing the details of the actual events from the 1980s. Directed by phillip noyce. He had also done graham greene's quiet american, back in 2002. Story based on joe sharkey's novel.
