Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaOddly, the film leaves out the detail which explains the title - the all-important list of names which George Peppard gets hold of is, in the novel, in code, which is broken via a knowledge of Tarot cards. In the film, it's just a list of names, so the brief moment where the Patience Collier character is seen laying out Tarot cards has no resonance for the later scenes.

Featured review
Not Bad
This is one of those films I have fond memories of from my childhood. I remember I used to tune it in every time it appeared on TV. Yes, now being an old fart and having finally seen it again after it's long absence, I was somewhat disappointed, but not entirely. There are still some wonderful things about it. Primarily the score by Frances Lai, the beautiful photography and scenery (it made me want to go to Paris for a long time), Orson Welles as the villain, but mostly the wonderful Inger Stevens as the female protagonist. What hasn't survived the test of time are the silly plot and George Peppard. I used to like him in his TV show (Banacek, NOT the A-Team), but then I heard an interview with Pat Neal which told about what a bastard he was in real life, and I can't find myself liking any of his performances now, even though I may like the movie. Anyway, I do still enjoy the movie, and am glad I was finally able to find it again.
