      Add the details and background of Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy

      It can make me stop reading the book after watching the movie, and then let me, who has never liked to write meaningless inventory, prepare to take the time to do my best to make an inventory-I really love this movie.

      Strictly speaking, this is a rather complicated story. The narrative of the book is actually a bit clearer than that of the movie, but I really love the tune of the movie, although it further improves the viewing requirements—comprehension,...

      Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy

      When I watched it for the first time, I paused and replayed in many places to understand the lines and the plot. Of course, there was interference from improper translation, but it was still difficult to understand; after watching it, I probably understood the core plot, but it was very messy. So I watched it a second time with the double speed and fast-forward keys, and I basically understood it (except for the spatial relationship involved in the final capture operation), and it is also...

      post-view experience

      Maybe this is the real espionage war, there are no exaggerated fights, passionate chases, cool explosions, but a group of extraordinary ordinary people struggling to find the so-called truth in the intricate intelligence network. To be honest, the rhythm of the first half is slow, and the second half is not much faster. It's a bit boring to watch, and because of my IQ, the ending is a little bit incomprehensible, but the strong cast and excellent performance tension can be regarded as a...

      Gorgeous cast, different styles of spy movies

      This article was first published on the public account: Theater7

      "Darkest Hour", "The King's Speech", "Mad Max 4: Fury Road", "The Elephant Man", "The Imitation Game", do you want to see the protagonists of these movies play together?

      real spy movie

      This is the real spy movie, exciting. Looking back today, all of them are big stars, and all those who can get there will be used by him. Now if these people play together again, only big companies like Marvel can afford this kind of money. Originally, this seemed to be the first part of the original novel, but now it seems that it will definitely not be continued. The dark line in the film is also very eye-catching, that is, after World War II, the British MI6 has lost its...

    Movie plot

    The Cold War in 1973 that occurred in the middle of the 20th century continued to undermine the diplomatic relations between countries. The codename used by MI6 in the United Kingdom is Yuanchang, which is desperately keeping pace with other countries' espionage activities, just to make the United Kingdom.

    Evaluation action

    "The Potsmith, Tailor, Soldier, Spy" tends to show the mentality and life of different characters in the Cold War in a cool, more literary way. Even the process of revealing who is a spy in a climax scene is also a psychological suspense and thriller. This makes the film exudes a depressing and cold tone as a whole, not to mention the rich, detailed, and seemingly unrelated lines, details, etc., which need to be tasted...(Netease
