Capt Sabrena Goldman - haha Sabrena you know how to get me going dont you hahaha. I was introduced to the OSS during the Q course back in the day. One of my instructors let me borrow a book, Behind Japanese Lines; The OSS in Burma. Way back then I had very little experience and thought I was a tough guy. However, after being introduced to some of the training "they" had in store I became very humbled. I realized I did know anything and most likely would never master the art the way they had.

the Jedburgh teams were in France working very small groups, not what you would think. Incredible! But then again some of the stuff that happened during the cold war prior to the wall coming down is the thing movies are made of.

After the comedic spoof that Tarantino did a few years back, I would like to see a new film, but serious, about the OSS. There is a documentary: https://www.amazon.com/Real-Inglorious-Bastards-Min-Sook/dp/B073DGGN1R

There are also a number of books about the Jedburghs and other OSS operations during the war, but I've never seen a serious, theatrical-length film about it. (I'll check out the Mountain Road, though) If Hollywood gets tired of making films about comic-book characters in funny costumes with superpowers, then they could google "OSS Jedburgh" and read some stuff.
