About Kirsten
Expertise
I can answer most questions regarding films from the last seventy years. I am well-informed regarding film theory as well. My main focus is the films of the sixties and seventies, and I can answer most questions regarding these films, their stars, their directors, and even their producers. I can answer questions concerning the foreign films of the sixties and seventies as well as the pioneers of those films (i.e. Fellini, Truffaut, De Sica, Kurosawa, Renoir, Rosselini, etc.) I am also well-informed regarding the auteur method and those who popularized this film method in America (i.e. Warren Beatty, Dennis Hopper, John Cassavetes, etc.) I am a good source regarding Academy Awards history as well. I would also be a good source of information regarding films being interchangeable with war(especially Vietnam), certain political movements, as well as time periods and eras in general. I can recommend several movies for any war, era, or subject you are interested in. I am very familiar with the independant film movement, both the one that began in the late sixties and early seventies, as well as the slightly subtler one that is going on right now. I will extensively research every question I receive to make sure I provide you with a detailed, well-rounded answer.

Experience
I am the daughter of two independant film-makers, both of whom earned degrees in film from UCLA. I have seen almost any film you can imagine, and have access to reviews of those that I haven't seen. I have taken several courses in film study, and plan to begin my major in film studies at Chapman University next year. I have countless books and documentaries regarding films, film history, and certain film movements.

Answer
Hi Paul, thanks for the question. My deepest apologies regarding the delay! I am a collegiate athlete and have been out of state throughout the past week due to matches, therefore have been unable to tend to my questions. My apologies for keeping you waiting.

As to your question, I'm sure that you will not be pleased to hear that I do not have an exact title for you. The "world war II" film theme is one of the most prevalent in motion picture history, thus it is very hard to narrow down the list and lead you to an exact title with a precise match in the plotline. As of right now, the only title that seems somewhat familiar to the one you're searching for would be 'The Spy Who Came in From the Cold.' It was released in the 1960s, but had both a world war II, as well as a spy theme, and starred Richard Burton. I will continue to further investigate, and if I come across some more titles that may help in narrowing down the list, I will be sure to let you know.
Sorry that I couldn't be of more help on this one. Again, I'm sorry for the delay. Best of luck in finding it, and happy holidays.
