147 Ipcress File, The (1965)

- 'Christoper Plummer' (qv) was originally considered for the lead role, but
dropped out to star in "The Sound of Music (1965)" (qv).
- In the 'Len Deighton' (qv) novels the name of the lead character is never
revealed. 'Michael Caine' (qv) suggests ``Harry'' and the film's executives
put forward ``Palmer''.
- Palmer is the first action hero to wear glasses (Caine is short sighted in
real life).
