(1965, Anamorphic Widescreen) Pierre Brice, Heinz Drache, Daliah Lavi, Jana Brejchová, Terence Hill, Anton Diffring, Senta Berger. Brice plays a secret agent who’s given the job of retrieving a stolen NATO missile control device (the B501) that has fallen into the hands of a criminal syndicate. What the criminals want this device for is unclear at first but its theft is serious enough that Brice is given just a few days to get it back. The trail leads to Vienna and a variety theatre, which is notorious as a handoff point for stolen goods and a gathering place for enemy agents and other nefarious characters. After several attempts are made on his life, Brice becomes increasingly aware that he’s closing in on bad guys. This is a pretty good Euro-spy movie with a helluva cast. With English subtitles. Nice color, 35mm.
