0042 Film Review The Ipcress File (1965)

The 00 Files go rogue! Again! Yes, it sounds like the tagline from a Daniel Craig James Bond film, but it is the God honest truth. We take a little side step from the 007 film franchise and have a look at another 1960s British spy thriller: The Ipcress File (1965). Interestingly enough many Bond alumni have worked on The Ipcress File, such as Harry Saltzman (producer), Peter Hunt (editor), Ken Adam (production design) and John Barry (composer). The Ipcress File is based on a novel by Len Deighton and stars Michael Caine - with glasses - as Harry Palmer. In many ways this film is quite the opposite of the Bond films. And in many ways this podcast review is also the opposite of the usual reviews from The 00 Files… Are you intrigued yet? Come and have a listen! If you like our podcast, please share it with others!
