this be a really good film and one that i have enjoy watch several time . michael caine awesome a always . michael caine have receive kind of a reputation for take any role in any movie no matter what the quality or lack of same but he do a good turn in play sidney . from the start it so well write . who would have think that ira levin who write such creepy stuff a the boy from brazil and rosemary baby could write something this witty . let face it michael caine and chris reeve and dyan cannon and henry jones . how be you go to go wrong with a cast this good direct by sidney lumet . i be really reticent to go on because if anyone be to give away anything about this film it would be a crime . just watch it and adore it .
