    Recently reading Graham Greene's The Human Factor, its portrayal of Western Intelligence agencies being mired in moral ambiguity and beurocratic confusions was compelling reading. I hear it was even made into a rather successful film.

    (Spoiler below.) . . . . . . .

    I wonder how the film or book would be received now, where it shows the protagonist who is an MI6 officer defecting to the USSR at the end of it.
