Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
United Kingdom, 2011.
127 mins. English
LET THE RIGHT ONE IN director Alfredson adapts the classic John le Carré 1974 espionage novel with a little help from the crème de la crème of British acting talent. Gary Oldman (THE DARK KNIGHT) is George Smiley, a retired intelligence agent recalled to sniff out a Soviet mole who's managed to infiltrate the MI6. Set in the 1970s, TINKER, TAILOR, SOLDIER, SPY promises to be an intelligent old-school spy caper that prizes atmosphere over whiz-bang special effects, painting a portrait of international espionage very much at odds with the glitz and glamour of Bond. A fantastic cast and an internationally revered director mark this as an unmissable post-Bourne crime drama, already being tipped as an awards season contender.
