Fascinating, insightful, and informative. I could say more, but the "actor" says it better. However ... talking heads (with the occasional interjection from the writer/director Errol Morris in this case) often use other author's words, and this can leave the viewer feeling as if the question asked has not been answered, and sometimes avoided. Here, whilst the subject replies honestly, he also admits to a possible distortion by the hand of time, youth, and literary escapology and invention. I thoroughly enjoyed his affable demeanour, his candour and the insight it gave into the parallels between the books and his life. Any and every fan of John Le Carre's work should watch this tv film/documentary.
