'Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy'
Focus Features
Release Date: Dec. 9 limited
Based on the popular British spy novel by John le Carre, 'Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy' follows a retired British spy (Gary Oldman), who returns to work to help hunt down a mole. With a cast that includes Oldman (already garnering Oscar buzz), Tom Hardy, Colin Firth and John Hurt, and Tomas Alfredson ('Let the Right One In') directing, this could be the classy spy movie you've been waiting for. It also doesn't hurt that Oldman and Hardy can sate your 'Dark Knight Rises' appetite until next summer. -- Alex Suskind
