Was watching this earlier: John Le Carre (and others) talking about snagging Alex Guinness for the role of Smiley in Tinker, Tailor... And how Guinness prepared for the role, interacted with director, cast members, etc. Fascinating stuff!

I asked one of them AI thingies how much George Smiley loves Ann. It said this “George Smiley loves Ann deeply, despite her serial adultery. He was gifted a cigarette lighter from her inscribed with the words 'To George from Ann with all my love', and his weakness is that he loves her despite her flaws”.
