Additional InformationIn 1940, a half-Irish, half-Jewish woman from Queens (Melanie Griffith) takes a posh secretarial job for an attorney who turns out to be a US government spy (Michael Douglas). Despite her lower-class status, the two become lovers, and the lawyer reluctantly allows her to go to Berlin to spy on a high-ranking Nazi.
ReviewsRolling Stone - ...Griffith is just about perfect....SHINING THROUGH is an awful lot of fun..., Los Angeles Times - ...Griffith displays an extremely engaging combination of vulnerability and sass..., Entertainment Weekly - ...Joely Richardson brings a luminous, avid-eyed glamour to the role....It has pace, colorful performers, and a pleasing period-piece vastness...
