The intrigue turns out to be even more complicated than he expected.

 

The film is based on the book of the same name by John Le Carre (in the original title and Russian, there is a part of the counting rhyme). Moreover, this novel was already transferred to the screens as a series back in 1979. The lead actor in the new version, Gary Oldman, tried to combine in his image the behavior of the actor Alec Guinness, who played in the series, and the author of the book himself. In addition, he tried to grow a slight belly, characteristic of an older adult. Such a deep approach provided him with an Oscar nomination for this role.

This film is from Ridley Scott himself, and even with Russell Crowe and Leonardo DiCaprio in the lead roles.

The success of this French film from Luc Besson spawned many remakes.

He soon realizes that he is being hunted not just by criminals but by the CIA.

This film by Steven Spielberg received five Oscar nominations, particularly in the Best Picture category. However, the Munich plot drew sharp criticism from both Palestine and Israel. Representatives of both states stated that the authors greatly distorted the actual events.

But the husband begins to suspect something, and the spy is in mortal danger.

 

The famous Alfred Hitchcock has always approached the development of his films with complete dedication.
