Sydenham Film club presents – Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy

Based on the classic John le Carré novel, this international  thriller is set at the height of the Cold War. Disgraced British spy  George Smiley (Gary Oldman) is rehired in secret by his government –  which fears that MI6 has been compromised by a double agent working for the Soviets.

★★★★★ “More gripping and involving than any crash-bang action picture. What a treat this film is, and what an unexpected thrill.” GUARDIAN

★★★★★ “Completely    absorbing and a more than worthy companion piece to the 1979 BBC    serialisation.” TELEGRAPH

★★★★ “This spy story is all about the journey – the  process – and the byways of the route, not the grand finale. This film’s  superb cast, script and direction threaten to make that journey equally  as thrilling as Le Carré’s book.” TIME OUT
