Because I sure can’t. Any time the CIA is portrayed in movies, if they aren’t the outright good guys, they have all these qualifications about them being the bad guys. Like, it’s either some faction within the CIA or one person that turns out to be “bad”; then the rest of the agency fights against them. Stuff like that. Either way, every single movie that involves the CIA ultimately validates the “goodness” of the agency, and never dares bring up the things we know for certain they did, like support right wing death squads or back the coup against Arbenz (and the list goes on).
