Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy

The basic storyline is that Smiley, a supurb Gary Oldman, has to find the mole who has infiltrated right at the top of the Secret Service. To be honest the plot gets a little complicated at times but the film is so beautifically shot and so atmospheric and the cast is so strong that the film is enjoyable even at those moments when you are struggling to work out what exactly is happening.

The other very noticable point of the film was the demographic of the audience. It was like sitting in the middle of a Saga outing. Not so long ago we'd take the kids to a film and at times it was hard to hear because of the constant scrunching of sweet wrappers which when you're at Alvin & the Chipmonks is something of a blessing. At Tinker, Tailor the interuptions were caused by Mr Godfrey asking to be 'excused' once again.
