Some heavy hitters in this one... Michael Caine and Laurence Olivier. Spy thrillah. Caine is Kimberley, sent back to England by the Soviets. with a somewhat plausible story of why he's back. interesting, how they worked the story of actual german spy klaus fuchs into the story; he passed valuable info to the soviets and germans during WW II. Olivier is Admiral Scaith, trying to track down the facts. my favorite Olivier role is Rebecca. it's an awesome film, if you haven't seen it. Eric Severeid plays himself! lots of talking. some action. but not much. mostly more talking about why Kimberly is really back. there's a clever hiding place inside the church. and he actually changes his hair color. oooohhh. some action near the end... but mostly blah. not anyone's best work. directed by Terence Young. had done a whole bunch of James Bond films. he did Jigsaw right at the end of his career. novel by Dorothea Bennett, who just HAPPENED to be married to the director.
