The Black Windmill 01/05/19

Secret agent Michael Caine must take on both the kidnappers of his son and his own suspect Army Intelligence colleagues in Don Siegel’s efficiently filmed, curiously tame suspense thriller. Delphine Seyrig is enticing and Donald Pleasance an unlikeable security bureaucrat, while the capable Janet Suzman and John Vernon fill out a top-flight cast that performs well. But the thriller is surprisingly lacking in dramatic impact. Handsomely filmed in England and Paris. On Blu-ray from KL Studio Classics.
