(1966, Anamorphic Edition) Paul Hubschmid, Karin Dor, Vivi Bach, Rosalba Neri, Nando Gazzolo. Hubschmid is quite good as “Upperseven,” a master of disguise. He teams up with a CIA operative played by the beautiful Karin Dor, who would become a Bond girl the following year in You Only Live Twice. Together, the two of them set out to smash a diamond smuggling ring, which is also a front for a secret missile building project. Hubschmid handles the many action and fights scenes with ease and the film has a nice ‘60s spy movie flavor, especially in the second half. Lots of international settings. Beautiful color, 35mm.
