Featured review
Wish the soundtrack were available on CD, also wish the movie were available on DVD. Not a big Sharif fan, but I have always enjoyed this movie. Really enjoy Anthony Quayle and Julie Andrews is very entertaining.
Storyline

- TriviaOscar Homolka replaced Jack Hawkins in the role of General Golitsyn that was originally intended for Hawkins before his sudden death in 1973; ironically, this is Homolka's final film
- GoofsToward the end of the film when Andrews is on the aircraft and Sharif boards it, the aircraft is a Boeing 707-330. On take off it is a Boeing 747 "Jumbo Jet".
At the end of the film when Andrews meets Sharif in "Canada" there are "Alpine" style houses in the background, suggesting either Switzerland or Austria.
- Quotes
Feodor Sverdlov: Let me teach you the first lesson about these little games. You must try to tell the truth as long as possible. That way, when times change and you have to lie, there is a great chance that you will be believed.
