Each to their own then .... The Assassination Bureau (1969, Basil Dearden)
Ollie Reed and Diana Rigg and Telly Savalas? Fond memories of this flick sadly crumbled to dust under this microscope.
When cub reporter Rigg sets Reed a seemingly impossible challenge, a road movie ensues (rail surely cough) as pan European palaver is on the menu. Curt Jurgens harumphs for all he's worth, but it was just a bit dull, sorry .... great set designs and Beryl Reid in goth mode aside. Next!
