    Where to Watch

A private eye (Richard Todd), searching for a missing person, battles an implausible script. Adriana: Eva Bartok. Sassana: John Gregson. Spadoni: George Coulouris. Rosa: Margot Grahame. Borian: Walter Rilla. Bernarde: Sidney James. Familiar. Directed by Ralph Thomas.

Tedious and confusing mystery set in Venice. The story concerns the search by a government agent, Todd, for a former WW II hero who has become an assassin. Chase scenes over the rooftops of Venice and a music score composed by Nino Rota are the highlights of this otherwise dull actioner.
