Spy Films
I couldn't make one list in this category with the criteria and included James Bond films, so I've made two lists: one with films in which a main character is engaged in espionage (those marked with a * fit the criteria but are not necessarily classified as a 'spy film') and a separate list with James Bond films.
- North by Northwest
- The Third Man
- Notorious (1946)
- Possession*
- Nikita*
- The Conversation*
- Inception*
- The Bourne Ultimatum
- The 39 Steps (1935)
