1) The Pigeon Tunnel 

IMDb Rating – 7.0

The Pigeon Tunnel is a documentary about the famous spy writer John le Carré. The first impression of the movie is often that it’s a calm one. It’s just over 90 minutes long and mainly shows a long talk between le Carré (whose real name is David Cornwell) and the award-winning filmmaker Errol Morris, who stays off-screen. They talk back and forth, and the film also has old pictures and re-creations of Cornwell’s past. There are even scenes from the movies and TV shows based on his spy stories, like The Spy Who Came in from the Cold and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. Even though it seems simple, the conversation in the film is really interesting and keeps you hooked the whole time.
