In a daring twist, Dusko betrays the Germans and helps bring down the Nazi regime.
Very interesting story, I like it! I read a little about Dušan "Duško" Popov, an interesting character!
ReplyDeleteHe had such a rich life and yet most people don't know he inspired Flemmyng, probably because he was Serbian, but if he was English or French....
DeleteI might see if I can get hold of the book. Could be a "good read".
ReplyDeleteHe had a very exciting life, much more so than Bond. I read a lot about him but never a whole novel.
DeleteDon't know about him..wonder who will be in the cast..hope they get someone from Serbia.
ReplyDeleteThat would be lovely, but I seriously doubt it.
DeleteIt would be a shame if they did not cast a Serbian actor for this one. Popov was quite handsome in his youth so they, at the very least, better hire someone attractive for the role.
ReplyDeleteI would like our Aleksandar Radojicic to play him, he is gorgeous and charismatic.
DeleteYou missed your calling as a casting agent.
DeleteAbsolutely.
