This subject should belong to John Le Carre, but Le Lao does not write so heavily. In my guess, he'll let Smalley's direct disciple work as a professional spy and amateur detective, slowly and passively discover the truth, and maybe make a few phone calls to his mentor to ask him about the Cold War in the 1960s and 70s. Some legends and allusions. This disciple, it is best to have an intersection with the Prime Minister and the Prime Minister's wife in the young and frivolous Cambridge years. The Prime Minister's wife will be Le Lao's favorite character. She is infinitely sad in the setting sun of the British Empire. Although she has taken refuge with a different group of people, in essence, she should be in the same category as the Oxford genius Haydn of the circus.
If this story was written by Le Lao, the plot would definitely drag on a lot, but there will be no such scumbag that the wife of the former prime minister has been an unorthodox writer. As for the hidden poems, don't even mention it.
Okay, I'll admit that the story is tense and interesting; however, it's too funny to betray the elegant theme of Cold War Remnants: it should have been told in a rambling, but undercurrent approach: spies and gangsters There are still fundamental differences.
As for the movie, Polanski's use of colors and shots, under the constraints of a script with strong commercial intentions, still maintained a high level, the damp, lonely, empty environment and the blue-gray background created a good atmosphere .
A few small Easter eggs:
Ewan visited Professor Emett to leave, and the professor stared at the objective lens of his departure from behind the window. Personally, I thought it violated the narrative logic. The whole article is a singular third-person subjective lens language, and here it suddenly becomes a full perspective; there seem to be a few similar small bugs.
When the former prime minister found himself suddenly wanted, he anxiously asked which countries on earth were not under the control of international law. When this paragraph was made, Polanski was temporarily squatting in a Swiss prison because of the extradition trouble. Is he laughing at himself? Pretty funny.
BMW x5 and google are well embedded in the movie. Should have paid for it.
