Funeral In Berlin

I am an admirer of Len Deighton's fiction, particularly his Game/Set/Match/Hook/Line/Sinker/Faith/Hope/Charity roman fleuve. These represent professional writing at its best.

Funeral in Berlin is the second of the trilogy of Harry Palmer cinematic adaptations. Its star is another master of his trade, the cinematic giant that is Michael Caine. It is very sixties - no real hero, a plot that disappears up its own behind but staying just on the right side of being alienating. Enjoyable. 66/100.
