Reposted by Marnie Bullock DresserAnders Holmes @andersfholmes.bsky.social · 14/05/2025Anyone enjoying #Andor, really should see Tony Gilroy’s directorial debut Michael Clayton. One of my top favourites. Not just featuring what I think is George Clooney’s best performance (amazing Oscar winning performance from Tilda Swinton too), but it’s an excellent thriller. Fantastic screenplay. 2253 25
