Colin Firth Video Interview On ‘Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy’

Colin Firth, the Oscar-winning, English actor, stars alongside Gary Oldman, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Tom Hardy in the critically esteemed spy thriller Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. In the film, Firth plays Bill Haydon, “Tailor,” a role Firth really enjoyed. “I do like Bill in a lot of ways,” Firth told uInterview in an exclusive video interview. “He’s vain. He’s someone who actually I think finds crisis enjoyable and he sees the humor in most situations. I find that appealing, you know. He’s also a terrible poser and I’m an actor, so.”

Firth also reveals in the interview that he wasn’t much influenced by the 1979 adaptation of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. Instead, Firth relied on the book written by John Le Carré. “The book has all the information you need. I mean, I have so few lines in the film, and so little screen time, that I didn’t need much more than the book’s 350 pages to supplement it, really.”

Firth, coming off the incredible success of The King’s Speech, appears incapable of making a bad movie. There is much Oscar buzz surrounding Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. Find out why as Colin Firth takes questions from Uinterview.com fans in our exclusive interview.
