DOUBLE CROSSED, The True Story of Barry Seal.
DOUBLE CROSSED, The True Story of Barry Seal.
Starring
Dennis Hopper & Robert Carradine.
Harrowing and true. The life and deadly times of a DEA operative. “Barry Seal was like a pirate, an adventurer,” Dennis Hopper said of the undercover operative he portrays in Double-crossed. “He went for the gold. He had a vast network of planes and better surveillance equipment than the Drug Enforcement Agency." But Hopper stops short of calling Seal a hero. “Everybody’s got to eat their own snakes, and Barry Seal’s were poisonous.” Hopper brings his trademark intensity to the role of Seal, delivering an on-edge performance akin to his high wire through hell acts in Blue Velvet, River's Edge and Easy Rider. Robert Carradine, Adrienne Barbeau and G.W. Bailey join him in this compelling, fact-based story of risk and betrayal. As a top-level informant, Seal infiltrated major drug cartels. He supplied names, dates, places, methods and incriminating photos. He thought he had the support and protection of the U.S. government. But spies are sometimes left out in the cold. And when that happened, it was open season on Barry Seal.
Not to be confused with the more recent Tom Cruise Movie "American Made" which is also about "Barry Seal"
