The trailer for Fair Game tries to lure you in with references to The Bourne Identity and a spy-thriller packaging, but let's call this movie what it is: a film based on Plamegate, a chain of events that started in 2003 and made CIA agent Valerie Plame's top-secret career public knowledge.

Naomi Watts is Plame, with Sean Penn starring as her husband, Joseph C. Wilson.
