Masterpiece Theater

Rating: 10/10 (12 June 2017)

A great actor such as Hanks, I'd expect no less then the performance for the ages and here is yet another one from Tom. I have to also in the same breath mention the absolutely fantastic Oscar winning performance given by Mark Rylance. Mark gives an epic performance in his own right and it's so fine to see their two characters on screen. Bridge of Spies is as close to flawless as movies of this type get. It tells the story as it should but I appreciate the way it's told, it makes it more interesting, how the story is weaved. It makes all the difference how you spin a tale and in the same turn, hook the movie watcher in. Bridge of Spies finds just the right balance, striking just the right chord in my book!
