		Sorge himself was also a womanizer—he had a wife back in Russia, and both German and Japanese mistresses, but in one of the droller scenes in the film his German cohort quietly explains that ever since Sorge started seeing his wife behind his back, she’s suddenly become a lot less temperamental at home.

	A Review From The Cyber Rambler
		Sorge, a devout, albeit "closet", communist during years when the Nazis rose to power, was a newspaperman turned spy.
		It was Sorge, as well, who informed the regime in Moscow that Japan would not attack along the Soviet front, but would move instead against the Americans in the Pacific, thereby releasing Stalin from the burden of defending his border with Japanese occupied Manchuria.
		Sorge was eventually found out and executed by the Japanese, but not before his greatest piece of intelligence was ignored by the paranoid Stalin, who refused to believe that a German spy could be anything other than a double agent, and that Sorge's information was not misinformation.

	Stalinist biographies
		On the one hand you have the title, on the other you have a picture of Richard Sorge accompanied by drawings of Stalin, Hitler and Tojo; together these facts can only be taken to mean that 'Russia's master-spy' was also a master of disguise.
		The three faces of Herr Sorge are: (1) he was a German diplomat at the embassy in Tokyo during the 1930s; (2) he was secretly a spy for communist Russia; (3) he got a bit carried away with his position and may have become 'power-crazed'.
		Until, that is, a message was received from Sorge in Tokyo informing the Kremlin that Japan was not going to attack, that it had resisted German pressure to strike north at Siberia and was instead going to send its troops southwards.

		Shinoda’s Spy Sorge is probably the most exhaustive film account to date of the life of Richard Sorge, a person so interesting that I’m surprised more movies haven’t been made about him.
		Iain Glen’s low-key portrayal of Sorge as a rueful rogue would have been more impressive if he had been given more to build it on than stray hints of alcoholism, womanizing, and feelings of guilt.
		Sorge’s most prominent associates, Japanese journalist Hotsumi Ozaki and American radical Agnes Smedley, are potentially fascinating figures who come across as ciphers.
