The Spy Who Came in from the Cold Comments

Berlin is full of traitors, drunkards, sadists and vain fools. So since Kalec himself is a spy, does he fit that description himself? "That's my creative dilemma. Spies are my genre. I try to demystify and de-romantic this ghost world. But at the same time it still needs to be assembled into a good story. Like someone once said , the definition of genius (of course genius is not me) is the ability to bring two conflicting ideas together on the same theme, and this is my lifelong pursuit....

Great opening shot. The scheduling of several scenes is impressive. The superiority of capitalism is that it allows one to say: the Berlin Wall is the same filth on both sides. A little less words would be...

Play with the truth. Aixi fat may love this film even more. The protagonist hides a truth, and no one knows about the task except for the superiors. From then on, the focus of the movie is whether the protagonist gets out of his body. Unexpectedly, the truth is no longer the truth, replaced by the second and third layers of truth, and pushes the film to the end of abandoning the truth. Very romantic, plus lighting and photography, five stars without a...

Really cold. Compared with the later common translation of "Berlin Spy", I prefer the early "Cold Wind Lone...

It's a pity they couldn't photograph the Brandenburg Gate at that time. "They crossed the border safely and Klaus and his wife were reunited. That night, the young couple took a walk in the community on the Austrian border, where they would spend the night before heading to West Germany. They enjoyed their first freshman year. Meal, and took the chance to see the first Western movie. The movie that was showing in that town that week was John Le Carré's...

Oh shit. It's so fucking good. So tasty. The photography, the black-and-white images... just think of the word "classic". As for the story, the atmosphere, the music, Richard Burton, it really grabs me. At the end I was again short of breath and shivering and burst into tears (sick!). This kind of taste is 007 on the white, and it can't be worth the dish in the dish or a dozen Arhats. (Also, the reason for me to watch this movie is wes not...

Fantastic camera work, Burton was...

The original book is just that virtuous, and the movie won't be much better. The opening two-and-a-half-minute long shot is boring. The shadow under Richard Burton's right eye can easily be mistaken for a teardrop. The love scene accounted for one-third, which is clearly the mental retardation of the script. The uncle die hard is similar in appearance but lacking in...

The long shot of 2 minutes and 40 seconds at the beginning outlines the Cold War world under heavy blockade, and also heralds the end of the fate of the protagonist who has no way to escape. This is a spy film that is condensed and concise from photography to dialogue. The cold scenes, the bleak soundtrack, and the dull rhythm all overlap with the inner world of the characters. Richard Burton's blockbuster dialogue at the end of the play is the subversion and ridicule of the world of espionage,...
