Yes, one of my preferred movies about spies of the
seventies.
Some teletypes, terminals and even Dectapes, i think.
Another interesting movie with some old computing items
is "The Falcon and the Snowman" (music of Pat Metheny and
David Bowie, with Sean Penn and Timothy Hutton). There are
some scenes of Hutton in one room of the CIA using old
teletypes ASR33.
In Science Fiction field, I like two movies specially with
some computing interaction: "Colossus", and
"The Andromeda Strain".
But in Andromeda Stain the TTY played a major part in the movie.
Never did see Colossus.
