A veteran secret service officer from Britain hijacks a government shipment of $15 million of gold out of an irritation for never being knighted.
An appealing caper movie with an all-star cast. Fred Astaire is mischievous as a longtime British Secret Service man perennially passed over for knighthood. Disappointed again, he masterminds a plan to steal gold bullion on an airplane. He cons ex-Ivy League professor Richard Crenna & Anne Heywood, jet set
ex-wife of Jacques Sernas to help him recruit a gang of thieves. With good guys Ralph Richardson & Roddy McDowall, bad guys Cesar Romero & Adolfo Celi.
Filmed in London and Italy. Delightful music by Elmer Bernstein with Anne
Heywood performing the title song. Directed by actor Alf Kjellin.
