Richard Burton plays Alec Leamas, whose relationship with a beautiful librarian, puts his assignment in jeopardy."@en

"Drame d'espionnage. Après avoir vu ses hommes décimés par l'ennemi, Alec Leamas, chef d'un réseau d'espionnage britannique à Berlin, est rappelé à Londres. Il reçoit la mission de compromettre un des chefs du contre-espionnage en Allemagne de l'Est. Pour ce faire, Leamas joue la comédie de la déchéance et feint d'être prêt à livrer des secrets aux communistes. Emmené derrière le rideau de fer, il croit réussir, mais il s'aperçoit que le jeu est beaucoup plus compliqué qu'il ne l'avait imaginé."
"Classic spy film based on the novel by John Le Carre. Richard Burton stars as Alec Leamas, a bitter, world-weary secret agent who is taken out of his everyday field operations after a mission goes wrong, and after a bleak spell on Civvy Street finds himself going undercover into East Germany. Subterfuge and double-crossings ensue as Leamas battles to discover the truth behind his mission."@en
""Alec Leamas, the British intelligence officer in charge of espionage in Germany, is sent home after another British agent is killed at the Berlin Wall. The British service, led by Control, wants to eliminate Hans-Dieter Mundt, head of the East German organization. Leamas acts as an alcoholic to undertake the assignment. He obtains a job as an assistant librarian and slowly becomes involved with librarian Nan Perry, a Communist. Sent to jail for fighting, he is released and offered a sum of money to reveal his secrets. Leamas accepts and meets Fiedler, Mundt's assistant. Fiedler, a brilliant Jew who is eager to frame Mundt as a double agent, arranges a secret trubunal with Leamas as the star witness. At the tribunal, Nan Perry is called as a surprise witness, and Leamas realizes that the purpose of the plot was to eliminate Fiedler and strengthen Mundt, who is really a British agent. Mundt arranges for Nan and Leamas to escape over the Berlin Wall, but when Nan, a security risk, has to be shot, Leamas stays behind and is also killed"--AFI catalog, 1961-1970."@en
