The Quiller Memorandum

George Segal

Badly dated spy vs. spy yarn. Set in Berlin during the height of the cold war madness this has Segal as yet another superman type fighting this time against neo nazis. The big problem is the Segal couldn't pull this act off. He came across as a door-to-door salesman type - pushy, shallow and mostly a jerk.

Over-lit in the 50's manner the whole thing seemed fake and artificial. Best left in film history's dustbin.
