Fascinating plot.  Very well executed. Few post-9/11 spy thrillers show the dangers and risks of counterterrorism work through the perspective of the asset as well as the handler. The Dry Cleaner raises the bar for the spy movie genre.  I look forward to seeing more good things from director Chris Carr.” — Yaya J. Fanusie, former CIA Counterterrorism Analyst “The film shows excellent tradecraft.  It depicts the difficulty of walking the line between cultivating and protecting a human being who is placing his/her trust in you, but also recruiting a source who is needed to provide key information. It also shows the importance of operational security.  The counter surveillance scenes in the film are well done, in fact, there aren’t very many pop culture representations of SDRs that I can say are better than this.” — Dr. Vince Houghton, Historian & Former Curator at the International Spy Museum
