STUDIOCANAL has revealed that they will release a tenth-anniversary 4K version of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. The release is the first time that the film has been made available on the UHD format, and will land just before Christmas.
The anniversary 4K UHD release will feature a stunning new artwork by artist Matt Taylor revealed to media today. New bonus features will include Tomas Alfredson in conversation with Mark Kermode, with video essays on the film by UK critics Jason Solomons and Matthew Sweet.
Set in the 1970s, TINKER TAILOR SOLDIER SPY finds George Smiley (Gary Oldman), a recently retired MI6 agent, doing his best to adjust to a life outside the secret service. However, when a disgraced agent reappears with information concerning a mole at the heart of the Circus, Smiley is drawn back into the murky field of espionage. Tasked with investigating which of his trusted former colleagues has chosen to betray him and their country, Smiley narrows his search to four suspects – all experienced, urbane, successful agents – but past histories, rivalries and friendships make it far from easy to pinpoint the man who is eating away at the heart of the British establishment.
The special features are as follows. Look out for this one from 6th December.
