Watch Stalin's James Bond

Out of conviction for the Communist cause, Richard Sorge acted as a master spy in service of Stalin from inside the NSDAP. He was bound to the fight against Hitler - a daredevil, a womanizer and rule breaker. Richard Sorge was the model for Ian Fleming's "James Bond" - a fact that turns this historical documentary into a cinematic thriller. His story is about love, loyalty, trust and betrayal.

Stalin's James Bond is a 2019 documentary with a runtime of 53 minutes. It has received mostly positive reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 6.6.
