Based on John Ie Carr�'s first noveI, CalI for the Dead (which introduced spymaster George Smiley), The DeadIy Affair sees an ageing British secret agent (James Mason) set out to uncover the truth behind a government employee's apparent suicide. Eschewing the glamour of the era’s Bond thrillers, Lumet's chiIIing and intelIigent take on the spy drama presents a paIpable and darkIy sinister picture of Cold War intrigue. The exempIary cast aIso includes Maximilian Schell, Harriet Andersson, Harry Andrews, Roy Kinnear and Lynn Redgrave.
