Like everything else about 2020, this summer s film slate is hardly business as usual; we d normally be running a gauntlet of Oscar contenders and big blockbusters, but many of those releases have been delayed due to the ongoing pandemic.
Instead, we have a strange mash of big, small, middle-scale and idiosyncratic films to choose from for Boxing Day through to New Year s Day. ....

"A Call to Spy": Radhika Apte-starrer is Un-showy and Un-bombastic

Director: Lydia Dean Pilcher
Rating: Four stars, Streaming on Amazon Prime
A Call to Spy is a rare World War II film that doesn’t seek to strike awe and fear the requisites now to win battles. Quite in character with its heroes, a group of largely unheralded women spies (“the headless”, as they were called) who helped Resistance efforts in a France occupied by Hitler’s Army, it is un-showy and un-bombastic, populated by little people meeting their little deaths, not with big, big bangs but with big, big hearts.
For us, in the subcontinent, of course, A Call to Spy is vital as one of the people it shines light on is Noor Inayat Khan, born to an India-born Sufi mystic and a British mother, who was picked for her wireless abilities, placed in one of the toughest posts during the war, and was commended for bravely holding onto it till the end. ....

Direction: Lydia Dean Pilcher
BY VINAYAK CHAKRAVORTY
You would expect more suspense and drama given the subject at hand, and the sense of overall underwhelming does surprise you. Director Lydia Dean Pilcher has borrowed from one of the most intriguing chapters of World War II, but her effort fails to fully engage because the film falters at a storytelling level.
Pilcher s film is set at the start of the Second World War, when British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, in a frantic bid to thwart Hitler s mighty Nazi army, commissioned a unique agency of spies the Special Operations Executive (SOE) which would constitute women. ....

A Call to Spy movie review: Radhika Apte-starrer is un-showy and un-bombastic
Director Lydia Dean Pilcher uses Radhika Apte well in the role of Noor Inayat Khan, not overplaying or undermining her Eastern ancestry, placing the talented actor shoulder-to-shoulder among her contemporaries.

A Call To Spy Review: Radhika Apte Is Spot On As Indian-Born Spy Noor Inayat Khan

A Call To Spy Review: A still from the film. (courtesy YouTube )
Cast: Radhika Apte, Sarah Megan Thomas, Stana Katic, Linus Roache, Laila Robins
Director: Lydia Dean Pilcher
Rating: 3.5 stars (out of 5)
A World War II spy drama that relegates men to secondary roles would have been unthinkable a few years ago. Not only is independent film producer Lydia Dean Pilcher s first solo directing gig
A Call To Spy is a welcome break from norm, the film redraws genre lines to club the story of three courageous women with the theme of multiculturalism.
A Call To Spy, scripted and produced by actress Sarah Megan Thomas, who also does full justice to the film s meatiest role, is a neatly crafted, consistently engaging tale of a trio of female spies - an American, a Romanian Jew and an Indian princess - who worked for the F (France) section of Sir Winston Churchill s Special Operations Executive (SOE) to disrupt the Nazi war machine . ....
