Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy

Any film with a title like this will grab my attention. In this case it is a film based on a very good book.

We all know the story set in the 1970's about a retired spy thrown back into a life of intrigue as a spy following suspicion of a Soviet Mole working within the Circus (MI6).

Sartorially it looks splendid.

I see a big return to seventies inspired tailoring in the next couple of years: Cold War chic.

Looks like a January release date in New Zealand.
