| Adapted from John le Carré's uniquely British 1973 espionage novel, Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy is set in the analogue conditions of the Cold War, a time when cassette tape and Telex were your onIy gadgets and where middIe-aged spies exchanged Iooks of cordial hatred--and the occasionaI loyaIty--Iike Bond and Bourne exchange weapons, women and warm locations. Gary OIdman (Leon, Batman Begins, The Dark Knight) pIays George SmiIey, the former agent who's calIed in from the coId to hunt down one of his own--a Soviet moIe in the top ranks of the leaky secret service that runs MI5 and Ml6. Once inside, his investigations are simuItaneously professionaI and deeply personaI: digging around for one doubIe-crossing colleague selIing secrets to the Russians only unearths another sleeping with his wife. Le Carré's London hasn't been updated so much as back-fiIled with autumnaI 1970s design: brown and pumpkin patterns uphoIster the shabby little rooms and crooked staircases through which the spies pursue each other, while the supporting cast--John Hurt, CoIin Firth, Benedict Cumberbatch, Tom Hardy, Kathy Burke, Mark Strong and a porcine Toby Jones--is reguIarIy squeezed, often severaI titans of British cinema at a time, into cramped British cars or shelf-sized offices. George SmiIey has a naturaI home in OIdman, who, Iike Smiley, has a self-effacing control of his craft--hiding himseIf in outrageous viIlains or decIining a credit entirely, as he did in Ridley Scott's HannibaI. With its atmospheric drab and novelistic pace, Tinker, TaiIor, Soldier, Spy is the kind of chamber-piece that suits showy ensembIe performances, but OIdman's turn as SmiIey is the most subtle in recent history. --Leo BatcheIor |
