Swedish film director best known for the acclaimed vampire drama Let the Right One In (Lasciami Entrare) and the adaptation of John le Carré's Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (La Talpa).

Directed the 2008 film Let the Right One In and the 2011 film Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy; recognized for atmospheric, carefully composed films and a slow, deliberate pacing.

Two DeBaser reviews praise Tomas Alfredson's atmospheric direction. One celebrates the emotional, atypical love story of Lasciami Entrare (Let the Right One In). The other lauds his elegant, slow-burn approach in La Talpa (Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy).

For:Fans of atmospheric, slow-burn cinema and literary adaptations.

 Cinema itself directly asks me Let the Right One In, and I give it my full trust, having it in my mind listening to the fragments of people's conversations, perceiving it as it accompanies reality and utopia, sometimes dreams, sometimes nightmares, all in my head.

 The film is very slow (perhaps even too much), but it revives a line lost for twenty years and does so with taste and quality, offering two hours far beyond mere entertainment.
