'Operation Mincemeat' is a new WWII spy drama from Netflix that the streamer released on Wednesday, May 11.
From Netflix’s official description: “It’s 1943. The Allies are determined to break Hitler’s grip on occupied Europe, and plan an all-out assault on Sicily. But they face an impossible challenge — how to protect a massive invasion force from a potential massacre.
This is based on a true story, by the way. There really was an Operation Mincemeat, and it was built around the key point we raised above: How to cook up and deliver phony intelligence to the Germans, such that they would then act on it. Or, more specifically, not act on it, leaving the way open for the Allies to proceed with their invasion.
No matter who delivers that intel to the Germans, the Allies would be in trouble. The Germans would rightly treat as suspicious any game-changing intelligence that just magically falls into their lap from a source, no matter how believable. No doubt, they would rip apart whoever brought it to them.the intelligence on their own, as opposed to having it brought to them.
