This stunning and intricate adaptation of Le Carre's novel is a consummate follow-up film from the director of City of God. Ralph Fiennes calibrates his performance beautifully and as the forceful Tessa, Rachel Weisz delivers a career-best turn, with excellent support coming from Pete Postlethwaite and Bill Nighy. A grown-up thriller filled with passionate performances, this is one of the finest films of 2005.
