Film: Burn After Reading Directed by the Coen brothers

A quirky film about a washed up CIA agent who quits the agency but allows some secret data to fall into the hands of hapless fitness instructors played by Brad Pitt and Frances McDormand.

They try to blackmail him for return of the CD of data, one of the instructors is hoping to use this to pay for some cosmetic surgery.

The plot is then intertwined with George Clooney a state investigator who by random chance is dating the female fitness instructor. The plot contains a lot of random chance and connections that do not seem plausible.

Still a reasonably good film, everyone ends up dead or incapacitated - with the CIA monitoring guys wondering what ever happened.
