Gary Oldman received a long-overdue Oscar nomination for his performance as intelligence agent George Smiley in Tomas Alfredson’s intricate, atmospheric adaptation of the best known of John le Carré’s five Smiley novels. Recently recalled from retirement to help flush out a Soviet spy in the British secret service, Smiley navigates a dense web of betrayals and bluffs among an all-star cast that includes Colin Firth, John Hurt, Tom Hardy, and Benedict Cumberbatch.
