The IPCRESS File (1965)

<p>In the immediate frenzy of the James Bond-fueled 1960’s spy craze, it’s very interesting to note that Bond co-producer Harry Saltzman chooses this moment to produce a sort of ‘Anti-Bond’ spy film.  Michael Caine brings a ‘working man’s’ subtlety to his portrayal of a spy character that will strongly influence the more realistic spy films that will follow in further decades.  </p> <p>A new iteration of this seminal work of spy fiction is just around the corner.  March 6th has just been announced as the first of a planned 6 episode miniseries of the IPCRESS File on ITV.  David and Tod plan to watch and review each episode, each week.   </p> <p>Along the way, we will also be reviewing a selection of the Harry Palmer films, specifically Billion Dollar Brain and Last Night in Petersburg.  Please join us at the park bench of your choice to discuss!</p> <p>Music is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution license <a href='https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/'>https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a></p> <p>‘Ice Cold’ by Audionautix</p> <p>Artist:<a href='http://incompetech.com/'> </a><a href='http://audionautix.com/'>http://audionautix.com/</a></p> <p>‘Enter the Party’ by Kevin MacLeod</p> <p>Source:<a href='http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1100240'> http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1100240</a></p> <p>Artist:<a href='http://incompetech.com/'> http://incompetech.com/</a></p>
