Plot Summary: Roger Ferris (Leonardo DiCaprio) is the best man U.S. Intelligence has on the ground, in places where human life is worth no more than the information it can get you. In operations that take him around the globe, Ferris' next breath often depends on the voice at the other end of a secure phone line--CIA veteran Ed Hoffman (Russell Crowe). Strategizing from a laptop in the suburbs, Hoffman is on the trail of an emerging terrorist leader who has orchestrated a campaign of bombings while eluding the most sophisticated intelligence network in the world. To lure the terrorist out into the open, Ferris will have to penetrate his murky world, but the closer Ferris gets to the target, the more he discovers that trust is both a dangerous commodity and the only one that will get him out alive.

DECEPTION AND TRUST
Review by David Bruce

DAVID IGNATIUS (Author): "A subject that has always interested me as a writer is deception, and the process by which we deceive our adversaries."

RIDLEY SCOTT (Director/ Producer): "Information is the bottom line, and the subtext of that could be that you cannot trust anyone, not even your best friend...”

Body of Lies points to a very painful truth. And as painful as the admission is, it is nonetheless true, we all deceive, we are all deceivers. Deception is very much a part of being human.

Body of Lies asks, “If even friends deceive us, who can we trust?” The best answer seems to be -Love! And love means exposing yourself to the pain of being hurt, deeply hurt by someone you trust.

It will happen. You will be deceived and hurt by trusted friends. ironically, you will do the same thing as well, so will I. That’s why love needs to be at the core of friendships. Trust cannot forgive, but love can. Love heals. Love restores. Love sustains.

ABOUT TRUST
1. In terms of self: “Love God and trust your feelings. Be loyal to them. Don't betray them.” --Robert C. Pollock, educator

2. In terms of others: “You may be deceived if you trust too much, but you will live in torment if you do not trust enough.” --Frank Crane, film director
