In Reply to: Better than Bond? Harry Palmer. Anyone else here a fan of Michael Caine's portrayal? posted by tinear on September 28, 2014 at 13:19:08:
They don't make 'em like that any more. Thank God. I've seen more complex plots in a Road Runner cartoon.
I liked Caine, and I'm sure his rakish portrayal of Harry Palmer was quite the anti-hero in 1965. The rest of the movie was horrible.
