A little above that label.
It is now years I did not quietly watch it, and I must really say that Reed´s film is quiet remarkable, photographed the German Expressionist way, gorgeous black & white, Alida Valli still a beauty with high class, Trevor Howard untouchable, Bernard Lee, Cotten Joseph, many wonderful Austrian actors, a story by Graham Greene and the dark force of Wells in a story shadowing the whole adventure.
I am more than satisfy.
Now why can´t they make nothing of this intensity any more, or is it me ?
I doubt it.
And and then the music, a bit much too monotone and proeminent in the end, but, but...
