Archy Cummings (Billy Crudup) was partly based on real-life British traitor Kim Philby, who attended Cambridge University, rose through the ranks of British Intelligence, and subsequently was discovered to be a Soviet spy. He later fled to Moscow, where he lived out the rest of his life. The movie reflects this, having Edward Wilson (Matt Damon) speaking by phone to Cummings, who is in the Soviet Union.
