Wow. A hell of a lot better than I remembered. I’m going to be controversial and say this is the closest Hitchcock got to Bond, as much as I love North By Northwest. Whilst that film was a more light-hearted precourser to From Russia With Love, this is the thinking-man’s Thunderball. Frederick Stafford is Connery, Topaz is SPECTRE, Soviet/Cuban missiles replace stolen atom bombs, John Forsythe... read more

No stars, but wonderful cast. Karin Dor is as Pleshette in "The birds", the sacrificed wonderful woman. She has the best and stylish and greta image, dying in a sea of lilac dress...

Movies the giraffe watched in 2020: January (29 movies items)

"First viewing - Jan. 19th After Saboteur I wanted to watch Topaz since I knew just as much about it. Apparently it's considered one of Hitchcock's lesser films, and while it's far from essential I still thought it was a solid film overall. I found it quite fascinating insofar as it's tied to actual events, though if there's any truth to what unfolds I can't say. It also hosts what may be my favorite of Hitchcock's cameos. If the film falters in any way it's that there are a few pieces too many "
