Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy is a 2011 Oscar-nominated Spy Fiction film directed by Swedish movie-maker Tomas Alfredson. Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy is an adaptation of a 1974 espionage novel—fifth in the ubiquitously renowned ‘Smiley’ series—of the same name by British author John le Carré, featuring his greatest creation and one of spy fiction’s most supreme caricatures: the veteran spy, George Smiley. Overall, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy succeeds in reinventing the Spy Fiction genre on the celluloid by presenting a tale that’s not only high on entertainment value, but also has the power to woo the intelligent audience. The movie serves to be a thinking man’s thriller that has something for almost everyone: be it gore, suspense, intrigue, or voyeur. Highly recommended!
