Question for you inside... spoilers

Posted by: bloopster on Jan 17, 10:28 in response to lobogotti's post had a few friends tell me the same. i loved it and oddly...

Colin Firth's character was the mole. I get that. But the other 3 gave the Russians information as well, not intentionally but through their own ingorance and arrogance. These were the heads of British intelligence and they just go "oops".

My question is, what happened to the others? Oldman becomes the new Control and we all saw what happened to Firth.

I went to see Tinker, Tailor... yesterday man the last 20 minutes are great but the rest....what a bore!!!!!!!! {nm} gogreenytd Jan 17, 09:19

I 100% agree. This was my kind of movie too and I just couldn't get into it. bloopster Jan 17, 09:53

I think it was the Script, it was just too complicated to follow, and the settings dint help either {nm} gogreenytd Jan 17, 10:12

I'm with you!..seen it 3 times and going back for more....its a brilliant piece of movie-making. {nm} GLAMMGUY Jan 17, 10:15

indeed. I will say though that the film is not meant for wide release. could easily see it disappointing the masses. {nm} lobogotti Jan 17, 11:26

Too true, but none the less, an homage to the art of film making. {nm} GLAMMGUY Jan 17, 13:42

jack foley said it well and you guessed correctly. never read the book but plan to. {nm} lobogotti Jan 17, 11:20

Mostly only people weened on US action movie explication could say this masterpiece was boring, I guess.. {nm} Facto Jan 17, 13:43

I found The Lives of Others (spy/mole story set in Cold War Europe) to be 10x more interesting and captivating. bloopster Jan 17, 15:01

It's the best boring film I've seen since that goat-herder film. {nm} RufusS Jan 17, 09:59

But the 7:00+ long-take of the Easter procession from a high angle at the village intersection: a miraculous shot. (Link.) second gary Jan 17, 10:26
