Paul Smith was delighted to have collaborated with director, Tomas Alfredson in the early development stages of the BAFTA and Oscar nominated, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. Paul worked in a creative capacity, offering his thoughts and insights on 1970’s London. During various meetings with Tomas, Paul offered thoughts on the mood, colour and photographic approach to the film.
Set in the 1970s, TINKER, TAILOR, SOLDIER, SPY finds George Smiley, a recently retired MI6 agent, doing his best to adjust to a life outside the secret service. However, when a disgraced agent reappears with information concerning a mole at the heart of the Circus, Smiley is drawn back into the murky field of espionage. Tasked with investigating which of his trusted former colleagues has chosen to betray him and their country, Smiley narrows his search to four suspects - all experienced, urbane, successful agents - but past histories, rivalries and friendships make it far from easy to pinpoint the man who is eating away at the heart of the British establishment.
Written by Peter Straughan and Bridget O’Connor the film is an adaptation of John le Carré’s bestselling novel of the same name and will star a stellar cast including ; Gary Oldman as George Smiley with Benedict Cumberbatch, Colin Firth, John Hurt , Tom Hardy, Ciarán Hinds and Mark Strong.
