Spoiler alert - extra thoughts...

They made too little of both Connie Sachs and Roy Bland - minor but crucial characters; and Toby Esterhase wasn't good.

The Booker Chairman this year asked her judges to pick novels we'd enjoy and not just admire. The film makes me think rather of that.

Interesting hugely positive Peter Bradshaw review in the Guardian and not so enthusiastic Cosmo Landesman in the Sunday Times - added thoughts - Colin Firth is dreadful... Mark Strong and Toby Jones are good...

Only ever read and watched The Spy Who Came in From the Cold (when I was 15) and was expecting a difficult to understand plot. Objectively I really enjoyed watching a cold war thriller with good acting and no reliance on CGI. About time I tried another Le Carre novel.....
