Howard Rodman on “The Ipcress File”

Trailer 193 of 695
Len Deighton's nameless working class spy becomes Harry Palmer, "the thinking man's Bond" in the first of three downsized Harry Saltzman productions (star Michael Caine revisted the character in two '90s entries).

"Phoned it in so intensely, you can almost hear the dial tones" That line is better than anything in this film..
