Carl Colby traces the life of his father William, who rose from OSS paratrooper to major CIA “spook” during the Cold War and Vietnam, going deeper into the secretive maze that finally consumed him as the agency’s head during the scandals of the Nixon/Ford era. Despite strong file footage and many witnesses (including Colby’s sad widow), we never get very far into this brilliant, remote man, a patriot in his way. He never came in from the cold, until a canoe carried him to suicide. (2011) — David Elliott
