In The Ipcress File (1965), Michael Caine plays Harry Palmer, a man who’s SO very like Bodie that it’s almost overkill that his partner is played by Gordon Jackson (Cowley). Seriously. Such a good film!
The BBCIplayer, at least in Britain so don't quote me, has a genuinely great collection of like "must see old movies".
Casablanca, The Producers, Cleopatra, Hello Dolly, The Graduate, Mary Queen of Scots, Great Expectations (1941), Guys and Dolls, Chariots of Fire, Citizen Kane, El Cid, Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid, Funny Girl, Fiddler on the Roof and The Ipcress File.
So anyone wondering where to watch these in this streaming hellscape we live in? BBCIplayer babyyyy
Watch "A Man Alone (From "The Ipcress File")" on YouTube

I love the Ipcress File and the main theme from it is one that I think suits Agent Phoenix really well, like I always have this playing in my head whenever I'm playing a mission
