Movie #626 ........................."Page Eight"

Movie #626 "Page Eight" was a movie mentioned in a Charlie Rose interview with Bill Nighy, the star of the film. The scene with the famous Michael Gambon looked well done, so Dave and I checked out our newly acquired Amazon plus, and sure enough it was available on there, free of charge, so we watched it last night. Nighy works for the MI% (the same circus in the Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy)and becomes suspicious of his new neighbor Rachel Weisz who asks him in when he first meets her. And she introduces him to another man that has been following her and him around. This is a good mystery, that keeps you wondering throughout the ending. A much better film than the Tailor Tinker one and easier to follow ----the cast is very impressive and we highly recommend it. But it is played close to the vest, in Bill Nighy, Michael Gambon style. I rated it 4.5 stars out of 5 Masterpiece Contemporary: Page Eight Page Eight (2011) NR Silky-smooth veteran MI5 agent Johnny Worricker is wholly dedicated to his work, but his loyalty to the British spy agency is about to be tested. A top secret document surfaces that reveals heinous government misdeeds -- and puts Johnny on the spot. Genre:Thrillers, British Movies, Political Thrillers, Spy Thrillers This movie is:Cerebral
