You really have to hand it to those John le Carré spy stories. You never know which way they’re going to go, as up quickly turns to down, left becomes right and the topsy-turviness of it all keeps you on your toes as you do your best to figure out who is playing who and why.
That’s the basis for the adaptation his OUR KIND OF TRAITOR, which has the Russian Mafia involved this time, with Ewan McGregor caught square in the crosshairs of it all, a place he really would prefer not to be. Then again, that’s what he probably gets for trusting anyone who looks like Stellan Skarsgard at this point. Some people will never learn.
OUR KIND OF TRAITOR seeks to deceive you starting May 6.
