Dir: Ronald Neame | Cast: Anouk Aimee, Trevor Howerd, Alida Valee | UK Thriller 97’
This adaptation of the novel by Victor Canning follows the precedent set by ‘The Third Man’ – in which Alida Valli was billed simply as ‘Valli’ – by calling Anouk Aimee ‘Anouk’.
That aside the most memorable feature of the film is probably Miles Malleson rendered almost unrecognisable – both by his goatee beard and by his subdued performance -in an extremely rare straight part. @RichardChatten
