The Man Nobody Knew - In Search of My Father CIA Spymaster William Colby (2011) - Documentary
Carl Colby’s smart, fact-packed film “The Man Nobody Knew” operates on many levels, all riveting.
Primarily an account of the career of his father, William Colby, director of the Central Intelligence Agency from 1973 to 1976, it traces a history ending in 1996, when his body washed ashore eight days after he embarked on a late-afternoon solo canoe outing in Maryland.
While reviewing the turbulent period spanning Vietnam and President Richard M.
Nixon’s resignation, we also witness the arc of a marriage, the death of a daughter and the seeming disillusionment of a selfless, if steely-eyed and implacable, civil servant.
