Double oh Doris

This film has a Doris Day feel, but it is more of a cross between “Our Man Flint” and “The Man in the White Suit”. I will not go through the details of the film as they unfold, as that is why you will watch. It is essentially a spy vs. spy story with a lot of depth as to who is working for whom. The top two spies who keep reinventing themselves while creating a relationship are Patricia Foster (Doris Day) and Christopher White (Richard Harris). Also, keep an eye on the late Ray Walston of “South Pacific” fame. A little added plus is to see all the old-time technology. I watched the remastered DVD. The DVD extra that makes its purchase useful over streaming versions is the voice-over by authors Pierre Patrick and John Cork; they mention many other great films that relate to this production, even a reference to Ayn Rand.
