John le Carré did a masterful job with his character George Smiley in a series of novels. Guinness was the quenessential portrayal on the screen.
I understand Gary Oldman is to play Smiley in an upcoming redo of Tinker Tailer Soldier Spy in the screen. I cannot wait to see him vis a vis Guinness.
I have all of Le Carre’s novels. I loved Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy and The Honourable Schoolboy. I didn’t care for how he ended up portraying Connie Sachs in Smiley’s People though.
Is the Gary Oldman version of T,T,S,S out yet?
