Jack Palance (Torture Garden), Anita Ekberg (La dolce vita), Nigel Patrick (The Virgin Soldiers), and Anthony Newley (Jazz Boat) star in The Man Inside, a pan-European crime caper directed by John Gilling (The Pirates of Blood River).
After stealing a cache of diamonds, jeweller Sam Carter (Patrick) is chased across a series of European capitals by Detective March (Palance), a mysterious beauty named Trudi (Ekberg), and a pair of thugs.
With supporting turns from British screen legends Sid James (Wicked as They Come) and Donald Pleasence (The Devil’s Men), The Man Inside was co-produced by Albert ‘Cubby’ Broccoli and co-written by Richard Malbaum, soon to be driving forces behind the James Bond series.
