It Takes a Thief features a criminal more or less being blackmailed into working for Lloyd's of London, so I guess they are the British :P I mean the British government though.

In this film, there are people trying to cross the Berlin wall from east to west, but also people trying to cross from west to east.

I really enjoyed "The Quiller Memorandum". I was about 14. Can't remember much of the plot :roll: . Great theme music. (John Barry, (et al) did James Bond music)

OK, Heid. Nicely done. Your turn. Be kind ... :wink:

You could start a whole new game thread here. :lol:

Haid, I think the idea here is that you start with a quote from a movie. An easy one. :wink:

:shock:

The only one armed men I can think of (besides the fugitive) are Luke Skywalker and Captain Hook. . .
In my hands I hold a candle whose flame is small to see, And if I give but one light to you my life is filled for me.
But...In your hands you hold a torch for many eyes to see, So hold it high that they may light their candlewicks from thee.

Yes, but set in 1946. :D

It is a western in plot, ethos and setting, but not temporally.

Ah. Well, I haven't seen many Spencer Tracy movies, so I'm not going to get this one.

Ok, to recap:

Spencer Tracy, who plays a one armed man, gets off a train in Arizona in 1945, and over the next 24 hours a standoff with the bad guys ensues.

Wow, heck of a story and cast. Can't believe I never saw it. Must try to rent it.

I guess the honour of choosing the next one goes to Haid .. :D
