A truly bizarre film. So happy to see Lizabeth Scott, one of my favorite Film Noir actresses. She was 50 when this film was made in 1972, 23 years after she made one her best movies "Too Late For Tears'.

This is a unique film; a bit of a spoof on the classic detective story. It also satarizes Hollywood with insider hands; sort of breaking the 4th wall a bit. Michael Caine is great as always. And all the acting is spot on. This makes for a very interesting and entertaining movie. 😅

Distant memories of Malta roads are rough as wild boar's ass. Bus drivers travelling at break neck speed. Ancient ruins are older than the pyramids of Egypt. The carriage rides around the capital of Valletta. It only takes an hour forty five by boat, to reach the island of Sicily where the Mafia began. I've always liked films with Michael Caine (now 90). I particularly liked the hectic key clanking enthusiasm of the audio typing pool.

I had to check who this actor reciting "Alice in Wanderland" lines was. He is Dennis Price, stage and film English actor. He was in "A Canterbury Tale" (1944 - a film by Michael Powell and Emeric Pressburger). These filmemakers produced together a few masterpieces such as "A Matter of Life and Death", "Black Narcissus", "The Red Shoes", "The Small Back Room", "Gone to Earth", "I Know Where I am Going". Just naming the ones I saw. If you are a cinephile it's really worth watching.

@@grindupBaker so, it wasn't the typewriter we all think about when talking about a typewriter. They were good as one could type outside, not needing electricity supply, I agree on this aspect. Your electric one was amazing I'm sure but nowadays, there's no point having them as the computers are superior in every way. Printing afterwards saves a lot of paper as we can preview the layout, let someone read it before we print out the hard copy. I can't see a single advantage of having an electric typewriter whatsoever. One probably can install all sorts of devices on them to make it possible to save text etc, but that will turn them into computers. I've seen a guy at a train station, with a huge, very old typewriter, typing some text and atrracting quite a lot of attention. I was wondering if the typewriter had a string case to wheel it around as these old machines were so heavy. I had exactly the same model, that's why I know how heavy it is. 🙂

The quality of the film stock used looks like it was sold as a job lot well after its sell by date. The script lacks sparkle. The humour is so leaden it makes an anvil seem like a helium balloon. The only positive is 1970s Malta as the backdrop. I so wanted to like this.
