The Good Shepherd


The Good Shepherd:

I also watched the film the Good Shepherd and this was not because I thought it would be  particularly useful but  that it would help me with my research as again it was all about the idea of discretion and the other side of criminality which is solving crime. What is interesting in this film is that most detective films like to show that the goodness of the plot does not result in happiness for the protagonist. But, it also showed that there is a lot of secrecy in counter intelligence and this could help hint at the fact that there has to be secrecy in crime.

Another useful aspect of the film is that even though the idea of organized crime by different crime families is a little out dated but it does give insight that terrorism and the threat of it are what seem to be more popular forms of crime in the present day.
