Operation Mincemeat

Published on May 6th, 2022

Thanks to our good friends at Transmission films we have five in season double passes to give away to Operation Mincemeat starring Colin Firth – which will be in cinemas May 12.

Here’s a brief synopsis:

Set in 1943, the film follows two brilliant intelligence officers, Ewen Montagu (Firth) and Charles Cholmondeley (Macfadyen) who conceived a plan that was dubbed Operation Mincemeat. They would trick the Nazis into thinking that Allied forces were planning to attack southern Europe by way of Greece rather than Sicily. Their plan was to get a corpse, equip it with misleading papers, then drop it off the coast of Spain where Nazi spies would take the bait.
