The Man Outside (1967)
Bill MacLean is a former CIA agent living in London. He had been fired when he stuck up for one of the men in his command who turned out to be branded a Russian defector. The embittered ex-agent combines forces with another operative to deliver a top Russian secret police official for a price. Before he can deliver the Russian, a trail of corpses and double crosses changes his plans. When his partner who concocted the scheme is murdered, MacLean returns the check to the CIA. They offer him his old job back, but the proud man refuses.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.
If you want drama, suspense and mystery, YOU got it all here. Van Heflin provides a riveting seeker of truth here in this 1967 movie. He is also naive, when it comes to his trade. But he quickly learns how to play the game of spy. When you watch it, you think it was made in the 70's. This movie introduced Heidelinde Weis (to the English-speaking world). She is a great side-kick, and (i guess) romantic partner (?).Buy and watch this well-made movie.
