What strikes is the cinematography by Benoît Delhomme. He shot 'Lawless', '1408', and 'The Proposition' all of which have a visual presence. His frame is structured yet breathes. He captures images that convey a sense of narrative -- something most shooters try for but few actually get.
Directed by Anton Corbijn who has a way with non-verbal storytelling, but handles the delivery of dialogue well. Written by Andrew Bovell from the novel by John le Carré.
With Robin Wright, Rachel McAdams, Daniel Brühl, and Philip Seymour Hoffman who looks fantastic in the clip/trailer below.
I can only hope this lives up to its potential. If it does it's must-see. However, if it doesn't it's still pretty much must-see.
