Gem from the Spy Movie Craze of the 1960's, July 23 2011

This review is from: Agent 8 3/4 (DVD)
Agent 8 3/4 I'm psyched about this comedy/thriller from 1964 finally being released on DVD. Dirk Bogarde plays an unemployed writer who inadvertantly gets caught up in international espionage. Released in Britain as HOT ENOUGH FOR JUNE, this delightful adventure has rarely played on TV ( I only saw it once on a PBS station back in the '70's) and I've been looking for it ever since. Hopefully we'll get a good widescreen transfer on the upcoming release!Just as a postscript to this review, I recieved the DVD yesterday and watched it this evening. Let me tell you, this WIDESCREEN TRANSFER IS FLAWLESS ! Both in visual and audio, this print looks like it's BRAND NEW!!! The colors are GORGEOUS, the sound is CRYSTAL CLEAR and LOUD, so you don't have to crank up your audio. Frankly, I was floored - just amazed as the quality restoration they did on this film. And mind you, this is the regular DVD, so I imagine the BLU-RAY is astounding as well!

Holds Up Extremely Well, May 20 2012

This review is from: Agent 8 3/4 (DVD)
I had never heard of this film despite being quite a Bogarde fan in my youth and still living in the UK when it came out. However, after reading the reviews on Amazon I ordered it and we watched it recently. For a film that is coming up to fifty years old it holds up amazingly well. The humour is quite remarkably current, particularly the sublety of Robert Morley's performance hinting at all sorts of things that never really come out. I particularly enjoyed seeing a lot of my favourite British actors of the latter part of the last century, often in very small roles. I really was not able to recognise several of the actors listed at the beginning of the film and one irritation is that there is no list of who played whom at the end. I did recognise John Standing, though, the acting baronet!

Slight but enjoyable 60's spy romp, Oct 10 2011

This review is from: Agent 8 3/4 (DVD)
A very slight but enjoyable British romp from the 60's that cashes in on the then current James Bond mania. It stars the always excellent Dirk Bogarde and Robert Morley and is a pleasent way to while away an 1 hour and 30 mins even though I can barely remember any of the so-called plot. A pleasent time waster - nice to look at, with good locations and a good quality print too. No extras on the DVD -but they are really not needed!
Listmania!
