Operation Mincemeat's Love Story vs. the Real Jean Leslie and Ewen Montagu
Operation Mincemeat's love story
is compared to the real-life relationship
between Ewen Montagu and Jean Leslie,
which the movie exaggerates. Colin Firth
and Kelly MacDonald portray Montagu and
Leslie, who in real life did get somewhat
wrapped up in the characters they created
to fool the Nazis. It's also true that
British Intelligence Officer Charles
Cholmondeley became interested in Jean
Leslie as well.
