When it ended, he returned to Great Britain unemployed and not knowing what to do next. He said: “I came back at Christmas 1969, completely destitute. I have no chance of a job, no apartment, no car, no savings.

Why was she taken on this role when there are many actresses who can handle it better. This confuses me. Her character is not interesting, just another role of an obsessive agent. Eddie Redmayne can do anything, his range as an actor is impressive from theater drama, musicals, films. He never disappoints. In this role, he is reliable in everything he plays.

It does not compare with the original, it is a worthy adaptation for our time.
