Colin Firth & Tom Hardy Interview

15 Sep 2011
Interview by Darren Bignell, LOVEFiLM

We speak to Colin Firth and Tom Hardy about Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy…

Brit actor Colin Firth talks about slipping into the shoes of Secret Service spy, Bill Haydon for the big-screen adaptation of John le Carré’s novel, while Tom Hardy reveals what it was like working with the awe-inspiring Gary Oldman…

Set in the 1970s, Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy finds George Smiley (Gary Oldman), 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.
