For example, in the eavesdropping storm, the special agent who developed sympathy for the listening object, such as the German businessman in Schindler's list who aroused the conscience of the slaughtered ethnic group, the literary world often pays special attention to the rare things in the real world. A gentle flame in this cold world can be regarded as a kind of idealistic...

The story of cheating is not uncommon at first, and it is nothing to die for a few men in the world. But with such a lovely and innocent girl, it is a real...

The concise and chilling atmosphere created by the skilled film noir technique in the first half is even more charming in my opinion than Melville, but unfortunately the long and mediocre court debate was too much vented, and the opposite of the story. Turning can't save you at...

The game is very exciting. You thought that the motherland would let you go to the enemy country to make countermeasures, but you are just a pawn in a bigger and deeper reverse protection scheme. People who have no conscience in espionage activities see that they are clever and conscientious. The first half was only worth four stars, the court trial was reversed once, the prison escape was reversed, and the script was upgraded. The soundtrack and atmosphere were charming, and the life was...

Based on Le Carré's novel of the same name, it was released in 1965, at the height of the Cold War. In the lonely piano sound, the towering Berlin Wall slowly slides past the camera, and the streets after the rain are clammy and bright. Stern black and white tones, cool and restrained atmosphere, Richard Burton's expressions and movements are extremely...

The first half is indeed relatively plain, probably for the camouflage of the second half! This is a movie that must not be spoiled. Other than that, there are no shortcomings. The scheduling is very elegant. The main characters are too full, and the actors are too good. My mother, this is a spy war movie. If You follow the plot without any drama at all, and 80% of it is the actor's credit. Remember the man with a raised mole on his lower eyelid. This is the normal state of spies, there is no...

The long shot at the beginning is enough to show the classic identity. It's too textured. A film that could only be conceived during the Cold War. Although the shovel party is cunning, it is still the evil capitalism. It is more knowledgeable about human nature. That left-leaning girl is a bit...

The gulf between good actors and great actors
The facial expressions of white people are always much richer than those of yellow people, so when playing a role of facial paralysis, it is relatively difficult to control the range of expressions. Burton is a bit like an outlier among white people, and his usual expression is not very big.
During...

The tired, disillusioned middle-aged spy
John le Carré was a particularly observant man. He was both a British spy and a successful writer, so even if he and Burton didn't spend a long time together drinking and binge-watching, he still saw through Burton's mental and physical illness.
In 1964, Burton invited him to watch "Hamlet" on...
The Spy Who Came in from the Cold quotes
-
Nan Perry: What was my part in all this? I want to know.
Alec Leamas: You were a pawn in the plot. London knew it was no good just killing Fiedler. If he'd been killed, people would've started asking by whom and why. Maybe he'd told friends he suspected Mundt. Maybe he'd left notes, incriminating notes. London had to eliminate suspicion. Public rehabilitation, that's what they organized for Mundt. I was sent to discredit him. He was sent to discredit me.
Nan Perry: And love?
Alec Leamas: We made it very easy for them. They used us. They cheated us both because it was necessary. Fiedler was nearly home already. If it hadn't been for us, Mundt would have been killed. They were bloody clever. All the way down the line they were bloody clever.
Nan Perry: Clever? They were foul! How can you turn the world upside down? What rules are you playing?
Alec Leamas: There's only one rule: expediency. Mundt gives London what it needs, so Fiedler dies and Mundt lives.

Control: Our work, as I understand it, is based on a single assumption that the West is never going to be the aggressor. Thus, we do disagreeable things, but we're defensive. Our policies are peaceful, but our methods can't afford to be less ruthless than those of the opposition, can they? You know, I'd say, uh... since the war, our methods - our techniques, that is - and those of the Communists, have become very much the same. Yes. I mean, occasionally... we have to do wicked things. Very wicked things, indeed. But, uh, you can't be less wicked than your enemies simply because your government's policy is benevolent, can you?
