Man in a Suitcase: Blind Spot (1.20, ITC, 1968)

"You know what I have in here?"

"Your lunch?"

"A confidential report concerning you."

"Confidentially, I don't care."

I'm not exactly saying that's the case with this episode (i don't have a specific example of this exact plot being used #previously) but it certainly Feels a little off... it doesn't really have the feel of a MiaS ep‚ and the vibes are more like the kind of #case The Saint may have been involved in. the plot may be a little strung out but it does afford Bradford some moments to shine in a more #playful performance‚ as McGill trades quips and snarky put downs with pretty much every other character; he's also rather sweet in his #dealings with young Felicity Kendal (a newcomer at this point but soon to become sitcom royalty and a tv icon). Goring had been a pretty #successful film star in his day‚ and was still a well known household name; in the 50s he'd both produced and starred in The Adventures of #the Scarlet Pimpernel for ITC‚ and soon after this guest spot he'd land a long running role starring in The Expert for the BBC

I'm a trivia nerd, so those of you that like trivia:

This is the movie that popularized NINJAS in the West, particularly in America.

And was the basis for the creation of SNAKE EYES and STORMSHADOW in GI JOE in 1984. And other ninja films, characters, and toys etc.

The budget was $1.5mil and they made back $15mil. Ultra successful. The 1980s were wild!

Martial Arts Champion, SHO KUSOGI, made 2 sequels as the protagonist. And other movies outside Japan.

And FRANCO NERO is as always a blue eyed badass.

Written by American marital arts champion MIKE STONE. He couldn't act well, so they hired Nero as the main character and Stone remained as the stunt double.
