    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Russian soldiers on the east side of the Berlin wall purposely disrupted filming by using mirrors to reflect sunlight into the cameras. The scene where Harry Palmer (Sir Michael Caine) walks to Checkpoint Charlie for the first time had to be filmed from a long distance for that reason.
    • Goofs
      During the funeral there is a cut to the taxi-driver who now appears to be driving from the right hand seat of a car previously established as left hand drive. This shows the film was reversed during processing so as to match the direction of flow of surrounding shots.
    • Quotes

      Samantha Steel: My name is Samantha Steel. Some people call me Sam.

      Harry Palmer: Edmund Dorf. Some people call me Edna.

    • Alternate versions
      Present DVD version starts with a short montage of people having a good time at Kurfürstendamm, enyoing the sun, having a coffee or beer, window shopping etc. The film then segues into the main credits set against the devastated Berlin Wall area. This short - some 15 seconds - sequence was not on previous Swedish VHS versions.

    8/10
    Cold War Classic
    Sequel to the Ipcress File, one of the few times a sequel is either equal to the first or better, it is similar to 'The Spy Who Came in From The Cold' but with more style.

    Caine does his usual (at that time) brilliant job as the star, and has good support, particularly from the German/German speaking actors, it was an excellent idea to not use more brits or americans in these German roles ( I still shudder at seeing John Wayne playing a mongol!), it adds depth, distinction and class, and makes it more realistic.

    A very classy film, I'm glad they made one more.
