...together over many years. Furthermore, the decrypted messages are often verified by other sources. The Soviets and their agents in America thought their coded messages were secure, so they communicated fairly freely--about their penetration of the wartime Manhattan Project, for example. Some leftists still protest the innocence of Julius Rosenberg, but there he is in Venona, as an agent code-named "Liberal." Names long disputed emerge with unambiguous clarity.

Lavish spectacle, a Dynasty-style version of Cleopatra's romances with Julius Caesar and Marc Antony, and just about zero chemistry between Leonor Varela's Cleopatra and Billy Zane's Antony.
