	Spy Game	comment	Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Spy Game is a 2001 American spy film directed by Tony Scott and starring Robert Redford and Brad Pitt.CIA operative Nathan Muir (Redford) is on the brink of retirement when he finds out that his protege Tom Bishop (Pitt), who he hasn't seen in six years, has been arrested in China for espionage. After learning that the agency has no intention of rescuing Bishop themselves, and with only twenty-four hours on the clock until Bishop is scheduled to be executed, Muir utilizes all of his skills, resources, and irreverent manner to find a way to rescue his friend in time. In the process, he also has to contend with the bureaucracy of the CIA's top echelon, as he's called before a committee to tell them what he knows about the younger agent, leading Muir to recall how he recruited and trained Bishop — from their first meeting in Vietnam, through their turbulent days together as operatives, and finally to the woman who threatened their friendship.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

	Spy Game / int_bd0230fb	comment	Ambiguously Bi: During training, Bishop is instructed to get a piece of information from a random woman on the street, and he chooses to ask where she got the dress she's wearing. Afterward, Muir criticizes his technique by pointing out, "What did you tell her? One, you're straight. Two, you're engaged. Three, tomorrow's your girl's birthday. Four, you have no taste in women's fashion. What if she were an asset? You told her four lies that now have to be true." If we take Muir's statements at face value (in the context of spies presenting stories about who they're supposedly, even true aspects about the person are lies that must be maintained for appearances, i.e., the crafted backstory has to maintain every single piece of information given) and note that Bishop's love interest is a woman, we're left with one conclusion.
