Any fans? I love this film. Complicated or convoluted plot but it is such an anti-James Bond spy story.
George Sanders as a transvestite spy who sews socks for one of his informants. Nigel Green as a drug pusher prostitution agent with no qualms about getting them addicted to heroine.
And Richard Boone as the most ruthless folksy spy.
"She can still be saved if only you'll agree. But if you don't agree, we'll turn her into the most perverted human being our minds can conceive. And when we're finished with her we'll start on your other daughter and your wife."

 Maybe a black sheep among secret agent movies. Max von Sydow liked to tell a story about this movie on TV in the 1980s, that the scenes that involved Orson Welles, Orson Welles totally took over directing the scenes that involved him, and John Huston just let him do that, and John Huston looked like a little schoolgirl who's just met her idol.
