Marching to the beat

 

The Little Drummer Girl (2018)


Directed by Park Chan-wook this mini series adaptation of the novel of the same name stars Michael Shannone, Alexander Skarsgard and Florence Pugh. Israeli intelligence attempt to infiltrate a Palestinian terror cell using an English actress.


I love John le Carre's stuff and even though I have not read the book of this one this appears to be a really good adaptation. The plot is tense and though provoking. It might not offer a lot new on the subject matter but it explores a lot of points that are as relevant as ever even 40 years later.


4/5
