Reviews
They don't make baseball players like Moe Berg anymore. Judging by Aviva Kempner's authoritative and engrossing documentary "The Spy Behind Home Plate," they likely never did.
Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times
Berg's life was indeed a fantastic one, feeling like something out of fiction yet completely true. Kempner's documentary is a welcome, fuller exploration...
