Smiley figures it out.
(Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, 2011. Dir. Tomas Alfredson.)
God I love this film.
I went on that book recommendation website recently and put in The City and The City. It recommended the book, which I hadn’t though of before but does make a lot of sense.

I’ve been reviewing my situation in the last half-hour of hell, and I’ve come to a very grave decision. After a lifetime of living by my wits, and on my memory, I shall give myself up full-time to the profession of forgetting. I’m going to put an end to some emotional attachments with have long outlived their purpose — namely the Circus, this house, my whole past. I shall sell up and buy a cottage, in the Cotswolds, I think. Steeple Aston sounds about right. There I shall establish myself as a mild eccentric. Discursive, withdrawn, but possessing one or two lovable habits, such as muttering to myself as I bumble along innocent pavements. I shall become an oak of my own generation.
George Smiley, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (via smokeandsong)
I should read this again sometime, only that ends in tears. Maybe I’ll just finally get around to reading more of the books with him in.

Oh Tarr. I think I feel most sorry for him by the end of this, in the film at least.

OK, stopping now before I die of emotions.

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy - a film about copious amounts of manpain.
And also spies.
So much manpain. I appreciate that by the end George is back at the Circus but really everything else has completely gone to shit.
