John Mills and Anthony Quayle both do a heck of a great playing some very interesting characters that I watch and want to know more of as it goes along, which is always a good thing for a movie like this. Some good scenes and movies through out, though at times they seem to be missing little pieces here and there that I can’t exactly explain.  A bit of a disappointing ending though as it is very predictable/common that hurts some of the “tense” moments through out.
