BILL BINNEY found a seat just inside the door of Washington’s Chez Billy Sud, a chic Georgetown pub, as a happy crowd was pouring in after an advance screening of Oliver Stone’s new film on Edward Snowden. The entrance was an appropriate perch for Binney, a lanky, 73-year-old former top National Security Agency official who’s largely been overlooked in the flood of publicity about Snowden, the infamous electronic-spying leaker who now resides in Moscow.
THE LEAKER: Joseph Gordon-Levitt, right, plays Edward Snowden in Oliver Stone’s largely positive biopic about the NSA contractor.
