I totally agree! I bought the streaming version and watch it periodically! That said I didn’t read the book so don’t know how the movie veers.

Just a great,complex movie that some of us will continue to watch.

One reason for this in my opinion is that it’s not an easy movie to follow for a casual viewer, there are a lot of things which aren’t given a vivid explanation but are nonetheless there for the viewer to see and hear as long as they are fully invested in it and paying attention. In that way it reminds me of certain elements of Tarantino movies, which rely on the viewer’s perception of events and dialogue. A friend of mine complained about tinker tailor to me saying it was very boring as it mainly consisted of men sitting at tables talking and arguing, which could be considered true because he didn’t get the gist of it at all. The really clever thing about the film is the subtleness of the dialogue and the little details contained in the scenes which can be easily missed if not paying proper attention. In that sense it’s in a bit of a niche as the majority of movies are aimed at people with short attention spans and low patience so they don’t get bored and switch off, while tinker tailor is more of a slow burner building up to a very intense finale, giving us hints all the way through. That’s why I think it’s a masterpiece

it's easy to overlook in the movie, but, also taken from the books, the Circus had some truly amazingly adept people working in it: Jim Prideaux, who realised who the mole was before anyone else, so mentally trained that weeks of sleep deprivation and torture didnt break him, master marksman, Connie, who had an extraordinary memory and eye to detail, capable of noticing things anyone would miss, Bill, who managed to live as a double agent for decades under anybody's nose, Peter, the perfect right hand; silent, smart, fearless. and obviously George, whose greatest skill, the ability to follow and make sense of a moltitude of threads without losing sight of the objective. And, in the books, Jerry, De Salis, Tarr, even Lacon. They're all flawed but they all show to be extremely competent and skilled in the end

That was the point of the book. Le Carre was surrounded by mediocrity and incompetence in MI5 and MI6, leading a boring life, so he wrote about what he would have liked it to be like. It wasn't all the fault of the spies - I've recently read about Klaus Fuchs and how MI5 and 6, and the FBI, worked to bring him down, and you realise that a lot of the problems are caused by internal politics and the law itself. MI5 wanted not only to catch a spy but to prosecute him successfully. They made many mistakes, but in Britain (and the USA) they couldn't simply make one disappear.

i love the film but i think you have to know the book, or at least the 1979 tv series, to appreciate it. there's more back story than story. it's so chopped down i can't imagine it making a lot of sense to a first time film goer.

Well, maybe, but he was actually doing the kid the greatest favour of his life. He didn't want the boy modelling himself on him. That's REAL compassion and humanity.

I think this movie/story encapsulates a place far beyond the ordinary or mundane, yet the emotions and relationships are as old as time itself. We witness loyalty, betrayal, secrecy, revenge, itegrity and/or the lack of it and the price each character pays for their chosen path. All brought together in this fine adaption of Le Carre's masterpiece portraying a rather seedy world. The casting was supurb and the sheer Britishness of it all makes for a glorious piece of cinema.

I'm a great Le Carré fan and think that this adaptation has huge problems, but these few minutes are really perfect (even though Haydon dies a different death than in the novel and the TV adaptation). I especially like the moment when Smiley leans against the staircase for a second when he realizes his wife has come home.

Have you ever wondered who had it in for you ? That feeling someone had an advantage over you but just could not pinpoint the rat .It could be anyone A brother Sister Friend or well anyone you were in close contact with .This film gave me the feeling I was in that very position of mistrust in my life where everyone was a potential enemy and the oh la la French rendition of the sad but comforting song "La Mer" seem to make the fear and hurt bearable ,
